Your screenshot does not match what you're telling me. You said 2560x1440 @ 60 Hz goes out of range after you add the HDMI support data block. Then you said you tried 1920x1080 @ 60 Hz, but your screenshot does not show you added 1920x1080 @ 60 Hz, nor does it show an HDMI support data block. I only see 2560x1440 @ 60 Hz and no extension blocks. The driver automatically adds some common lower resolutions as scaled resolutions, so the driver is automatically scaling 1920x1080 @ 60 Hz to 2560x1440 @ 60 Hz. This should be obvious with Windows 10 because the resolution will switch instantly without the monitor blanking out to change resolutions. If you add 1920x1080 @ 60 Hz with CRU, the monitor will not be able to display it.

The driver will not enable FreeSync unless it thinks the monitor is HDMI, so you need to add the HDMI support data block. This will limit the connection to a single link. If your monitor can't display 2560x1440 @ 60 Hz over a single-link connection, try a lower refresh rate like 50 Hz.
