So, I use it to make 21.9 resolutions for gaming (Have a LG C1 77)
Not sure when this started happening but LG had a software update a week ago or so. I’m leaning towards LG update is the cause of the issue.
I can now only use borderless mode instead of full screen, as it squeeze’s, it in at the sides.
MSI Afterburner is displaying 120 fps. I know when I’ve accidently its set to 60Hz it will squeeze the game in.
Current Nvidia driver 537.13-desktop, have tried rolling back to 536.67-desktop as I know this was working but made no difference.
Does anybody else have this issue or know of a fix?
Check if the TV has an aspect scaling option, which might have reset after the software update. If not, you can use GPU scaling with the aspect scaling option.
God I’m am an idiot!!!!!!
The GPU scaling wasn’t ticked!
I bought the Last of Us on steam sale, 6 patches later it must be working ok, right?
No, ran like a dog on my system. 30 + crashes (soft lock, hard locks) major stuttering indoors.
But this game runs in borderless mode only, no full screen option, as I had so many crashes, I used DDU and reinstalled driver. Forgot to re-tick box. If the game had full screen option would’ve prompted my brain to tick the box.

Thanks for helping my brain.
@ToastyX I didn't know about SRE, I just tried it and 3440x1440 now works fine, thanks.
About the display, it just has a toggle between Displayport 1.1 and 1.4, version 1.2 isn't selectable/available. But doesn't amtter since it worked even with DP 1.4 and 240Hz either way.
Hello!

I'm having trouble with my LG monitor resolution since august 24th. The best fit resolution (2560x1080) is not available, I've tried everything from updating drivers to formatting Windows.

Using CRU, I can't write the desired values when adding a new standard resolution. I've tried using extension blocks such as CTA-861 (TV resolutions) but still can't add the resolution I need.

I'm using HDMI with no adapter. Tried HMDI 2.0 as well.

Can someone please help? I think I'm using the wrong extension block or in the wrong way.

I'm using a Dell 11th Gen Intel® Core™ i7-1165G7 @ 2.80GHz 2.80 GHz (Windows 11) with NVIDIA GeForce MX330 and Intel Iris Xe Graphics. My monitor is a LG 29LW500-B.

Thanks!
Hi toasty is there a table or something for the established resolutions (their timing and other stuff)?
I want to convert a one to a detailed resolution.

You can use "Automatic CRT" timing to get the established timing parameters for those specific resolutions. The timing is documented in the DMT standard available here: https://app.box.com/s/vcocw3z73ta09txisk...1133572986

CRU is not for adding resolutions that should already be available. The monitor already defines the correct resolutions, so there's no point in adding the same resolutions again. If the native resolution isn't available, there's a reason for it, usually a pixel clock limit, but that shouldn't be the case here. This sounds like an Intel driver bug to me because someone else reported a similar issue with the Iris Xe, so maybe an older driver would work. You should ask Intel support about this. The only thing I can think of is if the monitor has an HDMI 2.x data block, delete it because it's not necessary for that resolution. You only need the regular HDMI data block. Don't add any resolutions or change anything else.
Hi!

Is there a way I can set my resolution in a way that I fully utilize the top part of my monitor but not use the bottom part?

Thanks!

Thank you so much ToastyX, I wasn't able to get any help 'till you gave me this hints. I've tried installing a very old version of the Iris Xe driver and it worked!

Again thank you for your help!

No.
I have Intel UHD 630 on a laptop (single GPU), and an Acer S271HL monitor connected via HDMI. On Windows 10 21H2 if I create an Automatic resolution of 1080p (native res) at 75Hz, after a while while suspended or seemingly on wake-up the monitor disconnects and comes back at 60Hz.

The only thing I've done in CRU is open it, add an Automatic PC resolution, changed the refresh rate, and set the new 75Hz resolution above the 60Hz one.
