I have seen users connecting two monitors to the same computer experience different text appearance on the two monitors.My PC i could say is experiencing the same issue, i have a single PC and a single monitor, when my PC was connected over VGA, the text was crispy and sharp and not fuzzy or blurry until i changed from VGA to Display Port, I did this to fix a black background shadow blur with white text the VGA analog to digital signal conversion the monitor was doing. But then my text over the Display Port is really fuzzy and not so sharp. I think my system unit believes i have two monitors connected and is downgrading the optimum visual experience out through the Display port,The onboard graphics card is Intel HD graphics 2500 and the monitor model is Lenovo L2251 wide.
How can i resolve the fuzzy text on my PC? I have tried researching on how to change primary display output from VGA to Display Port with no success, please help

Usually in such cases the resolution is set too low or only one end of the cable is actually DisplayPort and a crappy adapter is the culprit. We've ruled these out in the comments.
Your ClearType settings may be incorrect and the VGA noise could've masked the problem until now. Search for "Adjust ClearType" in the Start menu. The wizard will guide you through the process.

I ran into this exact same issue and noted in the Advanced Display Settings for the monitor that was blurry, the Active signal resolution was less than the Desktop resolution.
This post fixed it for me > https://superuser.com/a/1470967/1163967.
You need to go into "Display adapter properties for display", click "list all modes", select anyone, then change it back to correct display. Worked perfectly for me!
