How to force 4096 x2160p on native 4k tv @60hz

[Duke_PH]

In AW Editor you can do a lot more. It can also be used on sound devices. You can set wether or not something is stereo or 5.1 whether the input on your monitor is hdmi or dvi. The thing will write custom blocks for you. Anyway I'm done tinkering with it for at least a couple weeks. need a break. Having to go to safe mode to reinstall my video drivers after getting black screen gets annoying. Thanks for all the help.

Well some people want to change their native res to something lower for dsr if their native is 4k and gpuupscaling locks 30hz. Just want to pass on to these folks that it's possible.

Anyway I decided to make 1080p@60 default and see if i can use nvidias DSR to downscale 1440p to 1080 instead. Because DSR only renders at a multiple of the native then downscales it. And I have have no plan of playing at 8k downscaled to 4k, lol. Anyway it worked. I've ready some forums of people trying to use DSR in reverse and have seen people saying its impossible. So at least something good came out of this.

It's very good. Give it a try if you haven't already.

I don't understand. CRU already creates EDID overrides. Is there something you need in the AW EDID Editor that CRU can't do?

I tried using the edid of a benQ at some point and when i opened nvidia control panel the pc thought my monitor was a real benq and even displayed the output as dvi. Now my theory is maybe this 4k@30native restriction is only for hdmi. And if we can fool the computer into thinking its displayport or dvi then setting 4k@60 as native may be possible. I tried doing this on my own with AWEditor but nvidia still reported HDMI. And I'm just not knowledgable enough to take the BenQ Edid and manually put in my tv's proper timings. Any ideas?

HDMI acts like single-link DVI if HDMI support is not defined in the extension block, but then you won't be able to use 4:2:0 resolutions.

You're not using DSR in reverse. DSR scales down to the native resolution, and you set the native resolution to 1920x1080. That's how it's supposed to work. "Reverse" DSR would just be normal GPU scaling.
