Lol, I was just getting ready to open Catalyst and see where they were in the menu to suggest you have a look at them. I had the same problem when I first got this monitor, and it was a real headscratcher until I saw those options. It seems like the default is set to underscan a bit and I can't imagine why.

Well done for posting the solution, a lot would just carry on playing and forget about the folks here scratching their heads.

I used to love Tomshardware, but the last year or so it's becoming more disappointing with the level of unanswered or wrongly answered questions, but I'm glad it worked for you.

Thanks, both of you. I'm always a bit antsy about fiddling with more than the basics in graphics settings, so I was glad to stumble on something fairly recent and which sounded authoritative. As you say, there's a lot out there and not always accurate. Or hard to assess the accuracy.
