Radeon 9500 Pro & 19inch SyncMaster 955DF

I recently got a 19inch Samsung monitor and Radeon 9500 Pro. I've been having a few problems though. The main one is I can't even run the monitor at its preferred resolution (1280x1024x75hz), which is what I prefer as well, but the monitor always shakes. I have to run it in 60hz and even then it shakes in games sometimes, and the flicker is just unbearable. My first 9500 pro died on me after 5 months (knew I should've stuck with Nvidia), so I'm starting to think its the card.

The only other thing I'll mention is at first, I could run in 1280x1024x75hz, but then after a few hours it started to shake on and off for a few minutes back and forth. Now no matter what it shakes.
 
If it is still under warranty (and Samsung's warranties run from 1-3 years)
you will need to do that. It definitely is a problem with the monitor
(possibly a bad recitifier or cap on the chassis)
 
It's definitely a monitor problem? Damn, I was hoping it wasn't, now I've gotta pay the high ass shipping cost for a 50lb monitor.

So you're sure it's not a problem with the brand new 9500 pro (monitor is brand new as well)?

Thanks for your help though.
 
You could try the montior connected up to a different PC and see if the problem remains,I was going to suggest install the latest Samsung 955 monitor drivers as well,but it sounds like your monitor is faulty to me.
