It does seem to have some EDID, but yeah those res's come up as available. Stay away from them and you won't have an issue. Even then, all it'll do is shut down. If you happened to switch res (or refresh) that is out of specs from within the card software, Windows'll give you a little 'you have fifteen seconds' box, and then it'll switch back. If you accidentally do it from from Quickres, well, then you'll have to hook up another monitor and switch back manually.
