I'm a owner of a BENQ XL2420T @ 120Hz(double dvi connector) and a semi-pro csgo player, i installed your lightboost app and the results on csgo and on movies(with reclock and madvr) were amazing.
I'm a real noob on the display/monitor tweaking so i'm asking for your help so lets start:
Does Lightboost give you more input lag? (i'm playing at 10% lightboost)

Technically it does because monitors refresh from top to bottom, so it has to wait until the refresh is complete before strobling the backlight. That means the middle of the screen would be delayed by about 4 ms at 120 Hz.

LightBoost only works at the native resolution, so you have to use GPU scaling for lower resolutions. Without GPU scaling, resolutions created with CRU will be sent directly to the monitor. CRU has timing options to help fill in the values.

i was hoping that you could help me create a custom resolution with the fastest response possible whtouth tearing etc... and another one 1080p resolution to watch movies! thank you

The patch does nothing except remove some pixel clock limits. It's not needed for LightBoost. Strobelight already does everything that's needed.

toasty, so can you help me create a custom resolution 1280:1024 on the CRU?
my doubts are:
Timings: should i select an automatic timer? if so wich one? or should i go for the manual? if so what values should i introduce on: front and back porch, sync with blanking and total , horizontal frequency pixel clock and interlaced?
