But now I am on 1920x1080 native res, I just used nvidia custom res before. I have a Asus VS248H and I was just wondering about the timings? I see so many videos out there about standard or reduced which do you think is best for this monitor? I also have a amd card now and when I tried to overclock it at 1080p it got to 66hz with manual timings I didn't know which setting to try it had cvt, cvt reduced blanking, gtf and dtm. I also got to 74hz but it was a blurry pix elated picture. I would like to use this CRU correctly I assume with proper settings I could get to 75hz or maybe higher just want the safest easiest way. I'll try reading some more but a recommendation for it be awesome.

If you're using DVI, pixelation beyond 66 Hz sounds like a single-link DVI monitor receiving a dual-link DVI signal. Read the part about pixel clock limits. You can either use "LCD reduced" to keep the pixel clock under 165 MHz, or use the pixel clock patch. Other than that, the timing parameters don't matter much as long as it works.

Thanks for the reply, I looked at the monitor it does have a dual link dvi port and so does the gpu but the monitor came with a single link dvi cable and that is what I am using. I will read those parts you told me to read. If I just get a dual link cable would that be better, could I achieve higher Hz than the single link on top of using the lcd reduced?
