My monitor's native res is 1680x1050 60Hz. I hook this monitor up via DVI.

I have tried everything. Unistalling drivers and software but still the issue is the same. MAX res set at 1600x1200. Ant this looks low res. Probably because I need to set the monitor to wide mode wich stretches the image to the hole of the screen unless I want black borders.

Via ATI's Catalyst HDTV mode I can set the monitor to 1920x1080p 60Hz.
It looks good. My question is................ Am I damaging my monitor by doing this?
