Scaling issue with 2nd monitor.

isdouble

Hey guys, I just received my GTX 980 ACX 2.0 through Step Up Program from my GTX 780 Ti Classified ACX and is having an issue with scaling for my 2nd monitor.

My primary monitor (BenQ) scales correctly at 1920 x 1080 but my 2nd monitor (Samsung) goes out of the screen when its on the same 1920 x 1080.

For example, if I full screen Google Chrome, the tab of the website names above the address bar goes out of the borderlines of my screen and I can't see. Same thing applies to both sides and bottom. It's like my GPU is trying to over scale 1920 x 1080. I checked all my display properties and NVIDIA control panel and everything is where it should be.

The only way to fix the problem is to manually set the display at 1600 x 900 (same aspect ratio) but the letters become blurry since it's not native resolution.

 

This was not an issue with my GTX 780 Ti.

 

On the offside, I'm very happy with the GTX 980. I was able to overclock to 1500 / 8000 with no problem on stock voltage. Max temperature is only at 64C with a fan spinning at 55%.

 

Thanks in advance.

Unfortunately, I am at work so I'll try that once I get home but I believe I tripled checked all settings but I can be wrong.

 

Thanks for the quick reply.
