You don't have the option to adjust sharpness since it's direct digital connection, in fact if you did have sharpness option it'll make it look worse. I found best picture was a native resolution with no stretching, so try and output native or near native (ideally 1366x768 if that's not possible 1360 x 768 but choose a non stretching mode) I found standard PC setting not 1280i or 720p had the best picture (different TV though but should be the same)
Use your eyes.

You should be able to choose 1360x768, the 9xxx series ATI had that option. Open up CCC and fiddle with primary/secondary and selecting the different resolution. The HDTV resolution (1080i, 720p) was in a seperate area. Managed to select 1360x768. You want to go to this page in CCC..
