Thunderbot to displayPort: macAir - good, macPro - bad !? Why?!

Hi,

I was using MacBook Air late 2011 with Dell U2713H via thunderbolt to display port cable.
Except it wasn't fast (bacause of low specs) the picture on Dell was exceptionally good.

Today I've bought a new MacBook Pro retina late 2013.
Man it's a nice machine. Everything works fine and smooth.
The only problem is the Dell connection. Picture from macPro on Dell is harsh and quirky.

I've updated everything possible in appStore but nothing changed!
Any idead?

Best regards.
Alex

MacBook Pro with Retina display, OS X Mavericks (10.9.2)
