I've already set the right refresh rate in the Nvidia Control Panel and in Windows settings. Am I doing something wrong?

Pixel clocks beyond 655.35 MHz need to be defined in a DisplayID extension block, which is probably what the "Default extension block" is. For some reason NVIDIA's driver will not read more than one extension block. Secondly, I'm not sure you can avoid high idle clocks with mismatched resolutions because there's no way to synchronize the monitors without making the totals the same, which would be too much for the 1920x1080 monitor.

I would have imagined that I could not have solved this way. Do you know if there's a way to set my primary monitor to 120Hz even if there are only 60, 100 and 144Hz options in the Nvidia Control Panel? Can I do this with CRU?
