You need to calibrate the gamma on your monitor. Monitors usually come with a disc to calibrate them with and your monitor probably has some calibaration buttons on it. Adjust the blacks so you get a black and only the very lowest level with some differentiation to a lighter shade the next step up. This can be done in Nvidia control panel as well. I'm sure AMD has something similar for tweaking the display.
