Replying to self: It wasn't font rendering. I was looking at screenshot in my browser on the 24" monitor, and it looked terrible, and I realized that font rendering wasn't the problem.
I tried a few things to determine if I had a hardware issue, and if the 24" monitor is plugged in to either HDMI port, it looks ugly, but plugged into displayport, it looks fine. Got a new displayport cable from the help desk, and the problem is solved. i don't know if my HDMI cable went bad when I got the new NUC, or if there's some subtle but infuriating interaction between the AMD card, HDMI, and this monitor, but switching to DP fixed it.
