I know AMD cards have such a limitation with Eyefinity. Passive adapters also won't allow the full HDMI 2.1 bandwidth. The Club3D adapter should work since it's an active adapter. |

But, from what I have understood so far, what I should do is to reduce that range, not to 'expand' it (as you said). And yes, the LG CX also has a BFI system, but it reduces the brightness and image quality, and as you correctly said, the VRR cannot be used at the same time as the BFI.Reducing the range to 90-120 would cause frame doubling at 45-60, which you said you were trying to avoid. If the range is 40-120, then it's only doing frame doubling below 40 FPS. Either way, that's not going to affect motion blur. The link was talking about brightness flickering and overdrive artifacts causing ghosting, not motion blur. BFI is the only way to reduce motion blur. Ok. So I will get used to that motion blur, It is not a major issue. Thanks once more! |

RE: Custom Resolution Utility (CRU)
Dear ToastyX,
I have been using CRU, and I think it's an excellent tool, because it've helped me to resolve a persecution. After that, I still have a question that I hope you could help to answer. I've encountered an issue few weeks ago that when my monitor is set to 75 Hz refresh rate in default, the whole screen flickers(like a lightning within a second) sometimes with BlueStacks running a specific game(In other situations, it's fine). I have tried different ways to solve this issue including re-installing Windows, drivers, different AMD settings, and even changing a new HDMI cable, it's all useless. The only way making an impact is to set the screen to 60 Hz, it's okay without flickering. I was thinking the 75 Hz is unstable because the refresh rate is from overclocking. Then I used CRU to create a setting of 70 Hz(lower RR for trial) with LCD Standard, it's so fine like the setting of 60 Hz. Then I created another "76" Hz with LCD Standard to try. What surprised me is that it's also fine like other good settings. So I was wondering what happened to the default setting of 75hz? Then I used CRU to check the setting of 75 Hz out, it showed me that the 75 Hz uses "LCD reduced" setting, and the setting of 60 Hz uses "LCD Standard". So I think this is the cause. Because when I use the LCD Standard, the screen wouldn't flicker. But when I use LCD reduced, the screen would flicker sometimes. Could you please tell me 1. What's the probable reason that "LCD reduced" would make my screen to flicker? 2. Why does the default setting of 75 Hz use "LCD reduced" as I see in CRU? It's made by Windows or my monitor manufacturer? Thanks a lot !!! My screen: Philips 221V8A My CPU: R5 5600X My GPU: ASUS ROG RX 570 4GB the good setting: https://i.imgur.com/q9gDoBB.png the setting with issue: https://i.imgur.com/tGq7x0v.png |

So, I did some more extended tests on the EDID profile you shared, although it does work properly, if I go to the hidden hdmi diagnostic menu on the LG CX, using the new EDID, even at 2160p 10 bit 120hz (using 4*10gbps lanes as if I was using the original EDID), I get a lot of PHY errors in the hdmi data stream compared to when using the default EDID, did you do anything other than incrementing the FRL? P.S. I did check, when selecting 10 bit instead of 12 using the new vrr EDID, it does sync using 4*10gbps lanes (it doesn't just send 10gbps in a 12gbps lane), changing to 12 bits syncs to 4*12gbps lanes, so technically the sync bandwidth should be identical when using 2160p 10 bit 120hz on the original and modified EDID, so I don't understand why the modified one causes additional errors in the hdmi stream. |

CRU also doesn't include the range limits by default except with FreeSync monitors, but that doesn't affect any functionality. HDMI 2.1 VRR is in the HDMI 2.x data block. |

If the monitor can't handle the default timing parameters, then that's a monitor fault. It might be an issue with FreeSync not working correctly. |

RE: Custom Resolution Utility (CRU)
Hi toastyx,
I capture these shots from my TVs hdmi diagnostics screen after using the lg_cx_48Gbps.dat https://ibb.co/myQGkTw https://ibb.co/QpHympm Any idea what they mean? Should i be worried about the error count? |

If the monitor can't handle the default timing parameters, then that's a monitor fault. It might be an issue with FreeSync not working correctly. Dear ToastyX, I appreciate you very much. So my default timing parameters for 60 Hz is "LCD native", and the other(75 Hz) is "LCD standard". Then could you figure out that 1. Why does the manufacturer use different timing parameters for 60/75 Hz? or in fact, the most common parameters for 75 Hz or higher refresh rates is "LCD standard"? 2. Why is "LCD native" 75Hz good compared to "LCD standard" 75Hz? Or is that because my video card can't handle "LCD Standard" 75hz well? I turned off the FreeSync in the AMD software for the specified application, but the flickering had still existed. so I can't tell if that was caused by FreeSync.( My monitor's OSD menu doesn't have FreeSync, but it supports that in the spec.) |

Both 60 Hz and 75 Hz are using standard timing parameters by default. The problem is the monitor. It should have no problem handling the default timing parameters. There's really no reason for "LCD native" to work better. That actually uses more bandwidth, so it's not a signal quality problem. |

Hi ToastyX In my case, do you think I need 3 active adaptors DP to HDMI, or just 1 active adaptor and 2 HDMI cables? Which way is gonna be work with NV surround. Thank you, ToastyX |
