I have set the panel to 120Hz and restarted. The TV flickers 2x and afterward the contrast clarity is very high, good color and the actual motion seems subtle. Nvidia control panel and the TV still report the refresh as 60Hz. Is it still 120Hz even though it shows 60? Also I noticed since this fakes a DVI connection there is no longer an option for HDMI audio.

No, it should show 120 Hz if it's 120 Hz. HDMI acts like single-link DVI and is limited to 165 MHz pixel clock unless HDMI support is defined in the extension block. You need to add or import HDMI support and an audio format. That would solve both problems, assuming the TV can actually handle 120 Hz.

• Some monitor/GPU combinations can bypass the 165 MHz HDMI limit without patching the driver by importing one of these extension block files:
  • hdmi.dat (HDMI support only)
  • hdmi-audio.dat (HDMI support with audio)
  • hdmi-bitstream.dat (HDMI support with bitstreaming for A/V receiver)
