Hello all.
I've been using CRU almost at a year and I need to say that is a great software, but I found one problem with my configuration:
I recently bought an AOC CU34G2X/BK monitor, which is 3440 x 1440 resolution and has 144 hz of refresh rate.
The thing is that I want to create a custom resolution (with another refresh rate, something like 140 hz) cause I'm experiencing some micro stuttering in games (like Resident Evil 2 and 3 remake) and I tried various possible solutions with negative results, but I saw one post on one guy posted that creating another refresh rate below the maximum of his monitor did work for him, so I want to try it too.
The fact is, as you can see in the image, CRU is detecting my monitor with two differents refresh rates: 60 and 100, and the monitor is 144 hz (is connected to my GPU with the original Display Port that comes with the monitor, with which can reach 144 hz) and even Windows is detecting it as a 144 hz monitor as you can see in the image too... I can configure the games as 144 hz too.
I tried to edit the resolutions and I can set it at 120 hz at maximum but I can't understand why is CRU detecting it as 100 hz monitor.
I'm very confused with that, and I don't know if I misunderstanding something about CRU, so I need a little help with that.
Thanks in advance.

There are more resolutions in the extension blocks. 144 Hz is in the DisplayID extension block.

CRU doesn't deal with scaling or positioning. If you enable GPU scaling in the driver's control panel, you can set aspect scaling.

Hi
My monitor is 1080 144hz and i changed its settings to be able to play Resident evil 4 on 60hz.

However

After changing the settings the screen became black and didn’t show anything, i was using my DisplayPort, then i removed it and pluged the HDMI and the screen worked but it is locked at 60hz and I can’t change it.

I want my screen to be normal and reset it to the normal settings i had before installing the CRU, how i can do that ? And how can i make the display port work again ?

I included a photo of my settings.

Please help me

Thanks a lot for the efforts and i will be a patreon soon ❤️

Does uninstalling the CRU solve the problem?

Did you run reset-all.exe and reboot like it says in the instructions?

Yes, and when i change the frame rate to 144 the screen goes black and then returns to 60.

I’m trying to remove the CRU effects but I could not figure it out.

What model is the monitor? What GPU do you have?

Hello, I'm from Brazil and I'm using the translator, so I'm sorry for the typos. last night, I used the utility custom resolution program to stretch my resolution, however, following the tutorial I was watching, at the moment I applied the new resolution, the screen went black, and as I don't understand much English, I I thought it was just a wait, I waited for 1 minute and nothing, so I decided to restart the computer. When restarting, my monitor works correctly, the AsRock card verification appears, however, after that there is no signal and the screen goes black. I just found out today that when the resolution is changed and the screen doesn't turn on, I should press F8. Now I can't use my computer, I don't have a restore point, and the only method would be if I reinstalled windows, so I would lose all my applications. Was there anything I could do?

Boot into safe mode and run reset-all.exe.

If you don't have a recovery drive, press and hold the power button to shut off the computer while Windows is booting. Doing this twice should give you recovery options that you can use to get into safe mode: Troubleshoot > Advanced options > Startup Settings > Restart
