I may return my Radeon just for this reason. I tried powerstrip, but it won't allow me to set my resolution to 1280x960 either. Interestingly enough, Mac users get this resolution, but PC users don't. ATi's reason? Because 1280x1024 is one of the official resolutions microsoft dictates. That doesn't mean they aren't allowed to add 1280x960. That just means that they didn't because it wasn't required.
Of course every other video card manufacturer under the sun offers the 1280x960 resolution, except ATi.
1280x960 is the mathematically and visually correct resolution. I don't know how this 1280x1024 crap came about, but it's not the proper way to view your desktop. Everything looks squished.
I really don't want to return this card, but I can't get over something which is so important to me. Anyone have any constructive suggestions?
