This is a 1080p monitor...

Take a look at this screenshot...(it's 100hz refresh rate, not 60hz).

The monitor is accepting 2560x1440 and scaling it down. Some monitors can scale down higher resolutions. In theory, any monitor with a scaler could do that if the firmware allowed it.

61hz = works perfectly. What?

I don't know why it won't accept 60 Hz when it accepts other refresh rates. The XL2720Z seems to handle non-native resolutions strangely from everything you've told me.

1920x1080
60hz refresh rate.
Hor: 48, 32, 2080
Vert: 3, 5, 1179

VG248QE OSD reports 60 hz and Lightboost enabled.

I tried that while working on Strobelight, but it was double-strobed.

I found the double strobe setting actually does improve image quality when gaming (text and objects are more readable) compared to having no strobing at all. So people playing 60hz or 60 fps locked games like Dark Souls with Lightboost monitors may want to give that a try. It's pretty horrible on the desktop, though. The Eizo Foris double strobes at 120hz (thus 'Turbo' 240')

I've been trying to see if people with older T series Benq monitors can test the 2560x1440 downscaling. I suspect it may work because the same Mstar 8556T scaler is in use. We could have been supersampling downscaling for years (since 2012) without drivers or tools like Gestato (whatever its called) if people knew about this...

*edit*
I really want to get 120hz working without image corruption!
AMD VSR limits 2560x1440 to 100hz, so if I can get the monitor to accept 120hz with CRU, that's a BIG win compared to AMD VSR.
But I don't know what is causing the swimming pixels at 120hz, and the lowest horizontal available in CRU is 2641. Might not be possible
