Restricted virtual screen in the middle of the physical screen?

I have a big screen, 21.5" full HD, but it uses an old TN LED technology, viewing angle is very bad. I would like to make somehow a virtual screen with a resolution 1024x768 or even 800x600 in the middle of the physical screen, which has a native resolution of 1920x1080. So my monitor resolution would be set to its native 1920x1080, but my X screen would occupy only an 1024x768 rectangle in the middle. Is it possible? How can I do that?
I think I sould change my /etc/X11/Xorg.conf however I have no clue what sections and what keywords/parameters to apply.
