Try 1024x768 I was getting good results off a 5598 at that setting
Also, look at the speed number in the modeline (following the "1280x1024"
and try in the device setting to use the following line
DACSpeed (number slightly greater than the speed number)
I use DACSpeed 63
for a modeline that has 1024x768 61.3 ....
and it works
