Custom Resolution Utility (CRU)

I was under the impression that a HDMI-to-DVI cable already got rid of the audio part since DVI cannot support audio. This is obviously not the case then and despite the DVI connector, the signal is still a complete HDMI signal including audio?! Thanks for clarifying that.

HDMI is physically the same as single-link DVI. The signal determines whether it's HDMI or DVI. You can use the DVI ports as HDMI ports with most NVIDIA cards. The audio is embedded in the video signal during the blanking periods, so DVI monitors might not sync correctly with that data present.

The U3011 and GTX 980 Ti can both handle 2560x1600 @ 60 Hz with HDMI. The only question is whether the splitter and receiver can handle higher pixel clocks. They should if they can handle UHD/4K resolutions because 3840x2160 @ 30 Hz uses more bandwidth.

That wasn't happening before? It's normally not possible for the memory clock to change with multiple displays if the resolutions don't match exactly.
