I'm asking what you mean by "I can not put." Is Windows not listing the resolution or is the monitor not displaying the resolution?

If Windows lists the resolution but the monitor won't display it, that's probably because of the horizontal scan rate limit. 640x480p @ 162 Hz has a higher horizontal scan rate than 1024x768i @ 162 Hz. CRU shows you the horizontal scan rate under the refresh rate in the detailed resolution dialog. It's the total number of lines per second.

I mean technically with interlacing you would see 162 unique refreshes, but each refresh would be skipping half the lines.

The first number looks like the horizontal scan rate, and the second is the refresh rate. The PN is the horizontal/vertical sync polarity: P for positive, N for negative. PN would be +/-. The sync polarity doesn't matter with most monitors.

For I do not think for example that 640x480p 144hz is the limit of this monitor. it should surely support 145hz up to 160hz at least at this resolution, and the weirdest thing is that at 1024x768p the maximum I can climb is up to 90hz, and the monitor already comes with 85hz enabled.

It does make sense if you take into account the horizontal scan rate limit. The monitor is programmed not to go past certain limits to prevent damaging the monitor, so there isn't a way around that.
