it showed up correctly once for just a few seconds. ive noticed recently that its starts clearing up a little and im able to make out the icons but after a short time it becomes fuzzy completely

I have already rest the VRAM and SMC multiple times but results are the same. I even formatted and did a fresh install of OS catalina.

Hey kofiAfro,

Thanks for the update. Since it seems like the fuzziness begins to clear but then returns, it could be a hardware issue. You may need to have it evaluated for service.
