Custom Resolution Utility (CRU)

[PomiotSzatana69]

Hello.
Is there any way to bypass standard resolution 123hz refresh rate cap? I want to set it to 240hz.
Or maybe someone will have another solution for my problem?

Situation looks like that - one certain game forces itself to work in "standard resolutions" listed in CRU. When I shut it down and quit to Windows desktop I have 240hz from detailed resolution again (information important for later)

But...
When I delete all "standard resolutions" that game finally works in detailed resolution and I get stable 240hz refresh rate - sadly, when I shutdown that game and quit to Windows desktop my refresh rate is somehow stuck to 88hz and I don't know from where it got that value - I didn't seen it anywhere in CRU.
Somehow launching and quitting some different games or executing "restart64.exe" reverts desktop refresh rate back to 240hz - until I launch and shutdown that problematic, mentioned before game again - it is messing up desktop refresh rate again.

I'm out of ideas how to get 240hz in that game without any issues.

Thanks.

Hi guys, this is the first time I've encountered this, the hz settings do not change, I can't overclock the monitor, is there really some kind of protection against this? Laptop asus rog scar g17 g732

As of 03/23/23 CRU still does not work with latest driver 23.3.2 for 7000 series cards due to the lack of support from AMD for custom EDID's.

No, that's not why.

The thing is, I've been meaning to replace my entire setup and am thinking about getting at least a 144Hz FreeSync monitor so... just in case.

The only way to know is to test the lag.

There's no way for the data to represent refresh rates outside of 60-123 Hz for standard resolutions. You have to use detailed resolutions for other refresh rates. There's nothing special about the way standard resolutions work. There's no way for a game to only support standard resolutions. You didn't give any details about what's actually happening, only what you think is happening. You didn't mention what game, what monitor, what GPU, what resolutions, what CRU shows. Export a file using CRU and post it here.

Intel doesn't provide a way to add custom resolutions on laptop screens with 4000-series GPUs.

You would have to ask Intel why their driver limits custom resolutions on laptop screens.
