If the monitor already defines 2560x1080, then no, unless you reduce the refresh rate to 50 Hz.

Thank you very much for your help, succeeded!

I have two 2560x1440 and one 3440x1440 monitors.

That means the monitors don't define any TV resolutions. You can add TV resolutions manually, but 2560x1440 and 3440x1440 aren't TV resolutions. You would need to use detailed resolutions for non-TV resolutions.

Ok thx a lot for answer. So it is possible to get CRU to my priorisied setting? In all 8560x1440?

I dont know how, though.

I don't know what you're asking. CRU only deals with individual monitors. You need to use AMD Eyefinity or NVIDIA Surround to combine displays.

I know. But Nvidia Surround doesnt show any Resolution as an option. Beside one 3000x700 (dont remember the exact resolution). Then i found your nice program and wonder if it can help.
Seen a guy who used your program to get the wished resolution into Nvidia Surround option. But he used the extension blocks. Dont know if its normally used for that.

You need to be more clear about what you're trying to do. You didn't say anything about NVIDIA Surround initially, and you haven't explained what this guy did or what this has to do with TV resolutions, so I have no idea what you're talking about.

The problem is NVIDIA Surround does not support mismatched resolutions, so it's probably using the highest common resolution that's available on all the monitors, such as 1024x768, which would give you 3072x768 with three monitors.

You can try using CRU to add the same resolution with the same timing parameters to all three monitors, but G-SYNC monitors often don't support non-native resolutions (lower resolutions use GPU scaling), so I'm not sure if this is possible.

AMD Eyefinity doesn't have this limitation, but mixing resolutions can cause tearing issues because the monitors can't be synchronized. Usually it's best to have matching monitors for Surround/Eyefinity.

RE: Custom Resolution Utility (CRU)
Hello, everyone. I'm having a hard time trying to set the native display resolution of a lg29um68 monitor, which is 2560x1080, in Windows 10, using CRU. The maximum resolution I could set until now was 1920x1080.

I have a Intel Iris Plus Graphics Card, driver version 26.20.100.7463 (the last one supported by Dell), integrated with Intel corei7-1065G7 CPU in a Dell laptop. According to Intel, the maximum resolution supported (HDMI 1.4) should be 4096 x 2304.

But the native resolution of the monitor (2560x1080) doesn't show up at the "display resolution" drop down menu, after right-clicking on the desktop.

The problem is not the HDMI cable, as I have used it to connect another old laptop to this monitor without any problem.

Opening the software "Intel Graphics Command Center", I managed to create a custom resolution (2560x1080), but it doesn't work, and it doesn't show up at the "display resolution" drop down menu.

Running the Custom Resolution Utility, I wasn't able to add a standard resolution of 2560x1080.

Does anyone have any idea that could help?

You don't need to add it as a standard resolution because it already exists as a detailed resolution. The problem sounds like a 165 MHz pixel clock limit, which shouldn't happen with HDMI 1.4. Try importing the hdmi.dat file. If that doesn't help, the only workaround I can think of is to change the detailed resolution to 50 Hz.

ToastyX, unfortunately, as I imported the hdmi.dat fite and restarted the graphics card, the monitor showed a message that no signal was beeing sent. Then I deleted the extension block, changed the detailed resolution to 50Hz and restarted the graphics card again, but I couldn`t change the screen resolution to 2560x1080.
Anyway, thank you for your time and for trying to help.
