Custom Resolution Utility (CRU)

You won't be able to add resolutions greater than the pixel clock limit. I don't know what the exact limit is for your GPU, but I'd suspect around 300 MHz if not 340 MHz.

Only resolutions listed in CRU are sent to the display. Others are automatically scaled by the GPU. There shouldn't be a difference in game, so I don't know what's going on.

thanks for the quick answer!
So, if I understand well, the 1440p resolution what I set ingame is scaled because the 1440p parameters defined in CRU (after adjusted to 120Hz) is not match to the supported resolution of the TV or the graphic card.
I will check the pixel clock limits of my rig, and try to play with CRU settings.

Are there any tricks to get this to work on intel uhd drivers? I just got a new cheap ish monitor (acer ED347CKR). I cannot seem to make it go past 2560x1440 on my intel graphics corporate laptop (over hdmi). It works fine on my own desktop with nvidia graphics card. The intel custom resolution utility seems is not available on the laptop.

Here are the steps I've taken to use CRU:

Attempt one:
1) Open CRU, desired resolutions already under "detailed" already
2) Click ok, run restart
3) Click exit on dialog

Attempt two:
1) Same as one
2) Click ok, run restart64
3) Click exit on dialog

Attempt three:
1) Same as one
2) Restart machine

The resolutions available after all cases was not updated with the "detailed" resolutions. Is there something I'm missing?

Thanks

How can i save the Freesync Range settings if i have to update the driver?!

Do i have to edit the settings with CRU everytime manually?!

Hello. Do you have any idea if this is achievable with CRU?

I have a 3840x2160 TV, but I want to use it as 3840x1080.

The problem is that I need to show that resolution on the half bottom of the screen, which by default is shown at the center instead.

If I remember correctly this could be done by adjusting desktop size in nvidia settings, or something like that, but I have an AMD card and I can't find such option.

Any help?

Not that I know of.

I've Xstar DP2710 and I've used it for many years with CRU but now it doesn't work... I'm using two monitors and my 2nd monitor says "no signal" and Xstar's refresh rate doesn't go above 64 for some reason. I tried launching CRU and set the refresh rate back to 96 but after restarting my PC it opens my 2nd monitor and Xstar stays black. I'm using GTX 1070 if that matters. I also ran pixel clock patcher before restarting but it doesn't work. I wish someone can help, this is so annoying.

64 Hz doesn't make sense unless the NVIDIA driver is not installed. Is the NVIDIA control panel available after patching the driver? Are you using a dual-link DVI port?

Nvidia control panel isn't available, when I tried to download it from Microsoft store it said "Application isn't compatible" or something like that. Yes, I'm using dual-link DVI. This is very weird, last time it didn't work I just ran the clock patcher again and it worked. Thanks for quick reply btw!

You shouldn't have to download the NVIDIA control panel. Is the NVIDIA driver installed? Is the control panel available after unpatching the driver? Do you have Valorant installed?
