What is the issue?

It's probably not causing any problems during usage but this kinda bothers me on each update. The setup window, text and buttons are larger than expected. I'm currently on 0.5.4 but same exists on previus versions. I have dual monitor setup. Both 1080p and never used scaling (on default %100). The size difference is pretty obvious in eye but here is a screenshot:

Windows

GPU

Nvidia

Ollama version

0.5.4

I actually don't think maintainers would see this issue among other 1.1K open. I haven't tested yet but if those worked, a PR would be better in my opinion.
