Hey bud,

Go into the AMD Catalyst Control Center (right-click desktop and click it, should be top of the list), then look under some of the display options look for something called "overscan". There will be a slider that you can adjust to make it fit the screen correctly. This happens to me after any driver install, so I'm assuming it is the same issue.

Cheers.

I have this same problem, I'm also crashing in my games when it freezes my whole computer.
I uninstalled all of the drivers, and used driver cleaner pro to ensure my previous drivers were gone. I can't get rid of the bars on the sides and when I go to the GPU scaling window, I have a slider at the top that is greyed out, one side says Underscan, the other says Overscan. I can't make any changes to it even when I check the boxes.

Any ideas? I can't get this thing fixed.

Adjusting the overscan slider is NOT an adequate solution to this problem.
When you adjust the slider it jumps, or snaps to predefined scaling levels. So while you can get the image to fill up more of your screen, you can't get the pixel output to be xactly 1:1 with the screen pixels, at least not with any of my 1080p monitors I tried... This means you're not running truly native 1080p, resulting in blurriness and artifacts.

On my R9 270x this problem ONLY HAPPENS with the HDMI port. DVI works fine for me, scales perfectly to my screen without needing adjustments.

AMD Graphics Card
Right-Click Desktop and Click It (AMD Catalyst Control Center) and Click (Preferences) Change to (Advanced View) You can see on Left and Find (My Digital Flat-Panels) -----> Scaling Options (Digital Flat-Panel) and you can see there is Underscan to Overscan. Make it Overscan Full. and your Screen will be Full Screen.
