i know that it doesnt support 360 hz so i tried 240 but still cant get it to work ?
am i doing something wrong?

CRU does support 360 Hz. Delete any default extension blocks. Then add an extension block and choose DisplayID 1.3 for the type. Then add a detailed resolutions data block and add the resolution you want. You might also have to add the native resolution at 360 Hz as well.

I've tried adding a displayID 1.3 and also tried a 2.0 to try to lower my refresh rate to anything between 300-360 on native resolution and all I get is the black screen on the aw2521h. I've seen a streamer actually overclock this monitor to about 390hz and he said he had success using the displayID but I cannot get it to work for me. Not exactly sure what I'm doing wrong. If anyone else had any success with overclocking or even underclocking the alienware 360hz monitor i would love to know how they did it.

Hello,

Im using a QX 2710 with a Vega 64 with only a DVI-D output. I can overclock easily to 96Hz, but as soon as I add the HDMI block in CRU it has a lot of artifacting. Underclocking the monitor below 55Hz also results in problems. Could this be an issue with my cable, or perhaps the graphics card? I have tried many combinations except for a different cable and gpu.

Hello there, I need your help because I'm having problems with my new screen. Recently I changed the stock screen to the Innolux N156HCE-GN1 on my Lenovo Thinkpad E15 Gen 2 with Ryzen 4500U to improve the color accuracy for photograpy.

The screeen works perfect on BIOS, Ubuntu and Windows with Microsoft drivers, but when I install the AMD drivers the screen starts to blink ramdomly, It's insupportable.

I have been using CRU and trying some settings without results. The only settings that half work is "Exact reduced" but sometimes blink too, at least blink too much less times than before.

Here is the specs of my screen: https://www.panelook.com/N156HCE-GN1_Inn...41166.html

Can you help me to find the correct settings for this panel? Thanks you a lot.

That doesn't sound like a timing parameters issue because it works before the driver loads, and panels usually aren't picky about timing parameters. It sounds like this problem: https://community.amd.com/t5/drivers-sof...d-p/269149

You can't overclock with HDMI. That monitor uses dual-link DVI, and HDMI is single-link, so it can only handle half the bandwidth. What happens below 55 Hz? That monitor should be able to handle lower refresh rates.

Yes.

Did you check all the data blocks?

These data blocks can have resolutions in them:

TV resolutions
HDMI support
4:2:0 resolutions

The limits are built into the monitor. They can't be changed with software.

G-SYNC monitors usually only support the predefined refresh rates. I don't see any reference to this monitor supporting other refresh rates.
