ToastyX, could you update the first post to link to this new working beta driver?
(It turns out the 4590 driver doesn't support custom resolutions and was a miscommunication - this 4614 driver seems to be the real deal)
Great news. I've updated the list.

That's not a FreeSync monitor. Why do you expect FreeSync to work with it? Why did you set the HDMI MHz to 660?

Can confirm with 100% certainty that the newest intel drivers work + CRU.
With some more testing I got my laptop to 100hz (LOL), no dropped frames, and it also shows up in games.

Blurbusters test wouldn't run fast enough so I downloaded a native tool and confirmed that the 100hz refresh is working. Amazing.

That's not a FreeSync monitor. Why do you expect FreeSync to work with it? Why did you set the HDMI MHz to 660?

I know it's not a freesync monitor but thought I'd give it a shot since there's been user reports that it could work on non-freesync monitors. I guess this monitor is a no-go. I set HDMI MHz to 660 because it's what I read in the guide. I don't know why I set it to 660 MHz though.

RE: Custom Resolution Utility (CRU)
Hi! Thanks to this application I could get my 60Hz monitor to 75Hz. I just wanted to know why does my monitor gets blurry when I put 80Hz+? Is it something about the configuration or the monitor being bad/doesn't support higher refresh rates?

Edit: To get it to work at 75Hz I had to do a manual detailed resolution. Tried to do the same and the automatic detailed resolution with 80Hz+ and everything seems blurry.

What monitor? How is it connected to the video card? What does the blur look like? What timing parameters are you using for 75 Hz?

Monitors with scalers are not likely to work, and pretty much any monitor with HDMI has a scaler.

My monitor is a Samsung SyncMaster 740NW. It is connected through VGA, though nevermind. I was trying to get it to 85Hz today but sometimes it stopped giving image. I will just leave it to 75Hz, that is a huge improvement from 60Hz for me. Thanks for the application again Smile.

RE: Custom Resolution Utility (CRU)
Hi all! Need help with overclock my Samsung monitor.

I have the monitor Samsung 4K UHD Curved EU40JU6790U connected trought HDMI v1.4 on Gigabyte GeForce GTX 950 2Gb OC, and it works with 60Hz perfectly, but I want to configure another resolution for a gaming mode...

I want to run 1600x900 on 85Hz, 99Hz, or maybe 100Hz or 120Hz in best variant...

First, I download and run nvlddmkm-patcher-1.4.0 for NVIDIA, CRU program and MonInfo program (Monitor Asset Manager by EnTech Taiwan), the dump of MonInfo is attached.

Main strings from dump:
Quote:Timing characteristics
Horizontal scan range.... 15-135kHz
Vertical scan range...... 24-75Hz
Video bandwidth.......... 600MHz
CVT standard............. Not supported
GTF standard............. Not supported
Additional descriptors... None
Preferred timing......... Yes
Native/preferred timing.. 3840x2160p at 60Hz (16:9)
Modeline............... "3840x2160" 594,000 3840 4016 4104 4400 2160 2168 2178 2250 +hsync +vsync
Detailed timing #1....... 1920x1080p at 60Hz (16:9)
Modeline............... "1920x1080" 148,500 1920 2008 2052 2200 1080 1084 1089 1125 +hsync +vsync

Now I can run 1600x900 only on 78Hz... if I set 79Hz and more - I see only black screen and no signal info.

Please if anybody knows - tell me how can I tune my monitor for refresh rate 85Hz or maybe more - 90Hz, 100Hz, 110Hz, 120Hz for 1600x900 resolution... Is it possible?

And what I need to do that?

Big thanks to anyone!
