Sorry, just dicovered, it is not the full xorg.conf. This is the correct one, and below you can see, where the resolution can be forced. Using xorg.conf is nice, when you need special settings. Hope this helps (and sorry again, to attach a file, but I suppose, this makes it for the op easier).

Instead of using nvidia-settings, you could also create a /etc/X11/xorg.conf and edit the settings you need. Yes, xorg.conf ois no more needed, as the driver itself checks the settings, but in some cases xorg.conf might help. I allow myself to attache mine here from the old days, it is for
