I don't understand why you would want to keep a setting that makes the game look worse. I have postprocessing turned off for the same reason though I have a smaller monitor than you.. This setting is so that weaker graphic cards perform better. Since you have a good graphic card I suggest you leave it off so the game looks better. Do not enable laptop mode either.

    @jpkarlsen Thanks for your reply! I didn't know it was meant for weaker graphics cards - in fact I thought the opposite, so thanks for clearing that up! I like the lighting effects it enables, like sun rays and the glow around street lamps - I wish they were part of the game's lighting settings, but I understand why they're not. The creator of GraphicsRules Setters informed me that I can disable DoF with a setter and keep the lighting effects with post-processing effects ticked on, so that seems like my best option right now.
