First my setting:

My problem now is:
I have a modern 27" monitor, and when I connect it with my graphic card with a VGA cable I can choose the native 1920x1080 resolution in the NVIDIA settings.
If I connect the monitor with a DVI cable, I only got 1280x960 as highest possible resolution.
How can I use the native resolution of 1920x1080 of my monitor with the DVI cable? (The DVI cable is not the issue, I tried two other ones, same problem)
Thx in advance!
