adding -webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased; the problem remains... enter image description here

It could be a problem with the video card?

Update 2:

css font code:

 @font-face {
  font-family: 'Open Sans';
  font-style: normal;
  font-weight: 300;
  src: local('Open Sans Light'), local('OpenSans-Light'), url(../font/font1.woff) format('woff');
}
@font-face {
  font-family: 'Open Sans';
  font-style: normal;
  font-weight: 400;
  src: local('Open Sans'), local('OpenSans'), url(../font/font2.woff) format('woff');
}

This can be done by going to Settings within Chrome and typing "hardware" in the search box, then turn off the option to "Use hardware acceleration when available ". Only some computers will experience this issue, and it is advised to turn off hardware acceleration only if you experience issues.

This is an issue with Chrome rendering engine but it looks like this is finally going to be fixed. See https://plus.google.com/u/0/+FrancoisBeaufort/posts/PGPpiQr6bwi
