Unity Editor in extremely low graphics quality
I've recently gotten a new computer and installed unity onto it, it has a decently good GPU (Nvidia 1650 Super) but despite that I am getting extremely low graphical quality in the editor.
Below I have attached 2 images, one showing what my editor graphical quality looks like, and the second showing that I have all of my settings on Ultra

This might be because of being on a device with more than 1 GPU.
For example - you have a laptop with a built in Intel GPU (very low performance) and a dedicated GPU (Nvidia/AMD) and it is defaulting the Unity editor to use the low performance GPU.
Go to your task manager and notice the GPU Engine column (you may need to enable this column). This will tell you what application is uses what GPU on your device.
Launch a 3D game and see what GPU it says. Compare that to your Unity instance.
If Unity is not using the dedicated GPU then change it via these instructions for Windows 10
