Are you connected via HDMI? There is a setting in Catalyst which fixes this, same happened with me.

 

You need to look for 'Scaling Options' in 'My Digital Flat Panels' and make sure it's on 0%, otherwise known as 'Overscan'

Hi guys! 

 

My new GPU (AMD Radeon R9 270x) just came in this morning, i intalled it and it works but my resolution on the main monitor is weird.. it has a edge or border around it while it is a 1080p monitor. The resolution is set to 1920/1080 (reccomended).

 

And yes i have installed the latest AMD drivers.

 

Thanks!

I believe its a over / under scale or scan option in the control centre.
