Downscaling doesn't send the higher resolution to the monitor. CRU adds monitor resolutions.

Hey all. I'll probably get shot for asking the question, but it is life or death situation anyway with AMD completely killing the current ways to downsample and both of the games I currently play don't have AA and forcing it makes horrible things to happen.
From all I have read:
NVIDIA does the downsampling at the gpu level, monitor goes native resolution image
AMD does send higher resolution to the monitor and it is monitor's job to downsample it, and here the usual limits takes place - moitor capabilities, the connector bandwidth, etc

I have tried on my U2412m downsampling tool and it worked (12.11 beta drivers). Same settings with CRU, or actually any pixel above the default resolution results in monitor message of "Unsupported video mode". If AMD downsampling really sends higher resolution to the monitor, is there, even a tiny bit of chance CRU can be used for that too?

Thanks for reading my stupid question

From what i understand a monitor doesnt have the processing power to downsample, only way to downsample is thru GPU
