  • Asus GTX 560Ti can't open 1440x900 through DVI

today my new graphics card came from PC and Parts
i downloaded the latest Nvidia Drivers, But i can't go more then 1280*720 on my 1440*900 LED Screen
i tried hooking it up through VGA but it still didn't work.
so i tried creating a custom resolution with nvida control panel , and IT WORKED !!
BUT, if i connect it again through DVI the same problem occurs and i tried creating a custom resolution but it fails on the test and doesn't work
any suggestions ?
you didn't mention its only using 59hrz and not 60 :P
AvoK did you try running any game? Also if you did, can you choose 1400x900 inside the game?
Id try re-installing the drivers again, if it didnt work.
Did you OC it yet ;) !?
clean your drivers using driver sweeper pro then reinstall driver...btw what version are you using?
I did run some games on it and no i still can't go over 1440*900
i also did try removing the drivers and reinstalling them
the problem is that my screen isn't getting detected with a DVI connection ...its only getting detected with a VGA connection
I have also tried downloading drivers for my display. but my display doesn't have any drivers.
try the monitor with a different system and cable and try the card in a different system.
Do what yasamoka suggested, and if didn't work, use your one year warranty offered by pc and parts.
there is nothing wrong with the card , its my monitor since I can create a custom resolution via VGA port.
but what i would like to know is how can i force my card to display in 1440x900
It's not necessarily the monitor...it may be a compatibility issue between the graphics card and monitor...meaning that if the card in another system works with the same monitor over a different cable...then it's neither the card nor the monitor.

DVA is usually easier than VGA to configure since it's a digital signal. So you don't have to worry about setting up clock, phase, timings, etc... Seems your problem is a compatibility one. Why don't you try the disc drivers? And how are you cleaning up your old drivers? Use safe mode and driver sweeper.

i know its a compatibility issue
and this has happend to me before, when i used my monitor on my friends nvidia 9800GT (MSI)
on my onboard intel HD graphics it works excellently.
i did try the disc drivers that came with it, i also downloaded the latest drivers from nvidia's site and asus site (the asus sites was older than the driver that came with in the disc.
i use device manager to remove the drivers, (when you remove it it has a check box that removes the driver completely) and when i install the new drivers i always make sure it does a clean install (removes the old one and installs the new one)
my DVI cable brand is Samsung (so its not the cable)
had the same problem on a diffrent Nvidia card (that means its the drivers)
Time to upgrade then :). A 560 ti on 1440x900 is just as bad as my 460 on a dual core :P. So much power being unused.
OHH MANN!!!!!,
i spent 670$$ on upgrades already
now another 250$ for a new monitor ?? JEEEZ ! :P
250$s???? What are you planning to get?!?!?
If its an LCD-TV then id understand, but if its only an lcd then your pricing is too high. You can get a 1080p monitor for less than 200
I hate to downgrade ...if i got an LED i never get a TFT with better specs
so i wanna get a Samsung LED Monitor thats Full HD and 3D ready
any suggestions? :)
If ya wanna get a 3D monitor why not go with a nvidia 3d ready monitor + glasses
I didn't mean getting them 3D ...I said 3d R-E-A-D-Y
which means it need nvidia 3D kit to be 3D
if i get the one with that link i have to put like 500$ :P
try a different DVI cable,you never know
Dude look...you didn't even troubleshoot yet...all you got is some random trial and error procedures that are inconclusive. Basically you have 5 variables:

1) System
2) Graphics Card
3) Drivers
4) Cable
5) Monitor

Change one at a time and see where the problem lies.
