can you help me with this particular problem?
I've got an Acer XF270HUA.

The problem is, that Overdrive does not work with FreeSync.
The monitor itselfs decides, whether it is in FreeSync or normal mode.
No, get a monitor that doesn't have that problem.

RE: Custom Resolution Utility (CRU)
Hi,
I m curious since I have read that increasing the freesync range can actually permanently damage your panel. What would be the maximum possibly for the MG279Q. I have read that since the standard range is 35-90 that is a factor of 2.57 that setting it to 56-144 freesync range would be acceptable.
But I heard others say that they onyl use 74-144 because they are afraid of damaging the Panel.
So I m wondering if someone could shed light on this or if they are using a 56-144 range for a couple of years without problems Smile
Right now I m still at the default range of 35-90, but would like to change it!

Thanks for reading!

CRU Custom Resolution not available?
Hello! I have a question/issue...
I am trying to apply a custom resolution to windows 10x64bit with a Radeon HD4850 graphics card, however the resolution is not showing in windows after restarting the driver and/or computer, additionally any resolution I apply is showing as light gray in CRU... what does light gray mean?

-Running as Administrator/by administrator

  • AMD/ATI only supports the resolutions in the drop-down list. Other resolutions will be ignored by the driver. These will be listed in gray.

You should add them as detailed resolutions. If you're using DVI, the driver will also ignore resolutions less than 25 MHz pixel clock, so you'll have to use the "CRT standard" timing option for 720x450 @ 60 Hz. Also, Windows will not list resolutions lower than 640x480, but they are available for programs to use.

I don't see how it could damage the monitor. The monitor is already capable of those refresh rates. The range should be at least 2.5x for LFC (Low Framerate Compensation) to work smoothly.

Is this for an external monitor? Make sure GPU scaling is turned off.

RE: Custom Resolution Utility (CRU)
Hello. I have a question.
Why is it not detecting freesync for my monitor which uses displayport? My hdmi monitor can already use freesync but my monitor that uses displayport can't. I can use freesync when it is connected via DVI by following the guides but I really want it to use it with displayport connection. My monitor is an Eizo MX220W.

That's not a FreeSync monitor.
