Depending on the timing parameters, it will either work without LightBoost, or LightBoost will be active but it won't be scaled correctly. You can give it a shot to see what happens.

CRU doesn't deal with scaling, but you can add custom resolutions with CRU and enable GPU scaling in the NVIDIA control panel with the scaling mode set to full screen.

I also remember if it makes any difference that when I was able to use nvidia custom 1600x1080 res without the mouse offset cursor issue a while back before my updates, I had several additional resolutions to select in nvidia that arent there now, looked like TV/HDTV options, I didnt use them but seems the scaling worked differently when they were there (for example the screen went black for several seconds when switching from stretched game 1600x1080 to native 1920x1080, even if both modes were confirmed running lightboost enabled, now it switches instantly) any clue as to what that could be?

There shouldn't be any TV/HDTV resolutions when using Strobelight, so I don't know.
