Custom Resolution Utility (CRU)

[ahmlet]

Hi, I`ve been using this tool for a while. With the new options in latest version. Which are the best settings for making 21:9(2560x1080/3440x1440) resolutions for a 4k HDR 60hz TV LG uj6560.

The tool was working perfectly for a while, but now it does nothing. No matter what settings I enter, nothing changes after a restart. A few times it seemed like I get the custom settings I entered for a fraction of a second, but then it goes back to normal.

I have had no software updates, graphic driver updates etc in the meantime. I haven't changed any settings either. I'm running CRU as administrator too. Does anybody know what could be causing this problem?

I'm having the same problem. I'm using an Acer Predator Helios 300 17.3" (1TB SSD, Intel Core i7-9750H, 2.60GHz, 16GB RAM, NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1660Ti) (NH.Q5PEG.014).

For the life of me, I can't figure out what settings I need to change to make this work

The ability to change the brightness of my laptop screen stops working untill reboot after using CRU 1.5.1, I'm suspecting it has something to do with the new Windows update, as it hasn't done this before that.

I use a BENQ XL2420T monitor in conjunction with a 980ti video card and OS Windows 10 Pro 2009. My problem is that earlier in Windows 7 I used Display Scailing, and in Windows 10 I lost the choice and only have GPU Scaling. With your CRU program I got Display scaling back, but in full screen games on DX9 (cs go) I can't get 120hz, only 60hz works. Is it possible to fix this somehow?

CS:GO should use the desktop refresh rate. How are you using CRU to get display scaling?

You didn't provide any details. What are you doing with CRU? What hardware do you have?

Trying to hook up one desktop and one laptop. And Desktop has both HDMI and DP Connection while the laptop only has HDMI.
When I connect my laptop with HDMI, the laptop recognizes the monitor and shows the resolution of 5120x1440p but the screen is black and says "no signal".
I installed CRU posted on the page 1 here but nothing changes/happens.

For desktop, it works fine via DP Connection, but via HDMI, it only works with less resolution and the desktop does not show the resolution of 5120x1440 in the setting. I also installed and tried CRU on the desktop but again nothing changes/happens.

I chatted with the rep from Viotek. But no luck... Port is HDMI2.0 and cable is also HDMI2.0 so no hardware issue.

Lastly the laptop (Dell Inspiron 13, #7373. Bought in 2017) has Intel UHD Graphics 620. And the desktop (Dell XPS 8940, Just bought it) has NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1660 Super 6GB GDDR6.

That laptop does not support HDMI 2.0, and I don't know if that monitor supports 5120x1440 with HDMI. What did you do with CRU?

That would be up to the graphics driver. Maybe the driver has issues with DSC.

Use whatever works. I would try "Automatic (HDTV)" first since that's intended for TVs.

What are you trying to do with CRU? Laptops with Intel GPUs usually have switchable graphics, so Intel's graphics driver is responsible for handling the monitor.

What hardware? This is usually a driver issue.
