Two ASUS 1440p monitors with different scaling?

I started a thread about this on OCN, but I figured I'd ask here as well since this is more ASUS-oriented.

I have a MG279Q and a PB278Q. The latter I've had for a few years now and was my primary until I recently got the MG279Q. So far, I've noticed a couple subtle issues:

- MG279Q is very slightly blurry, relative to the PB278Q
- Everything is slightly larger on the MG279Q

For example, if I open the General Discussion subforum on both monitors, the MG279Q will show one less topic than the PB278Q.
Both are at 1440p resolution and no scale factor is set in Windows settings. Any ideas on addressing this?


Relevant specs:
- MG279Q on DP-MiniDP connection
- PB278Q on DVI
- GTX 1080 Ti (driver 416.81)
- Windows 10 1803

+1 when I’ve chosen to use multiples I keep them matched. Same exact models. I’ve not done this for a long time since going ultra wide.*
