    Ah ok!

    Yeah, I get that in 3dMark11 - 1280x720 in the middle of my screen, black border all around.

    I play every game at native res anyway, so shouldn't really matter. There may be a setting on your monitor to ensure even non native resolutions get stretched across the entire screen.

    I'm quite sure I don't have that option but I'll double check again.
    Thanks for the advice and for making me buy this card! :D

    Actually just did a quick search. Seems to be a common issue with 3dmark 11. Nvidia and ATI. So guess its just the software.

    No probs, its a difficult card NOT to recommend! I'm building a rig for a friend of mine, Sandy Bridge etc - and guess what? PNY GTX 460 OC :D

    When you have a chance would you mind trying any game at lower res and report back what is happening for you?

    This is the link to the bug report

    I'll give it a go tonight and post back.

    That bug report seems toi pertain to the 260.99 drivers though, which I don't use. Using 266.35 at the moment.

    Thanks for that!
    Unfortunately according to that bug report 266.35 drivers have exactly the same issue. I didn't try them myself, I might give it a go during the weekend
