Had to google again just to remember what i had to do with mine.

If you don't like CCC (I found it to slow down my PC) you can also disable overscan in the registry http://www.avsforum.com/t/1251639/ho...control-center

Haha, either that or it was all in the mind, I have a tendency to get annoyed by things in the system tray. Have a laptop with both Intel HD and NVidia graphics now so it's all good

I've used AMD-only cards with the full CCC suite for five years and it's never once defaulted to underscanning on any interface.

But by very definition if it's underscanning or overscanning it's not running on native.

Maybe overscanning is turned on on your display so it's cancelling out the underscan

The fact that it was overscanning meant it was scaling it to a non-native resolution. That's what overscanning does...

It doesn't have any such option or capability. It's a digital display and all digital modes are purely 1:1. There's overscanning/underscanning available on analogue (VGA, Component, and Composite inputs) but not HDMI.

Strange, all my TVs have a 16:9 and Full setting on HDMI, the Full setting being the one without overscan

Maybe not on your display but overscan is an option on my HDMI screen.
