Custom Resolution Utility (CRU)

Currently it's only possible if you can reduce the blanking further to avoid going over 600 MHz pixel clock.

I have a 3 monitor set-up - the primary central monitor is a 3440x1440p 144Hz LG 34GN850-B, the two outer monitors are 2560x1440p 144hz LG 27GL850-B. All connected to an RTX 3080ti GPU via display ports.

For some reason CRU shows the primary monitor as being 3440x1440p 60hz, and it shows a red number when I try and change the hz to 144, and won't allow me to make that change. This also means I'm unable to configure them properly as a triple monitors set-up using nvidia surround for sim racing (it tries to set them to 5760x1080p 75hz instead of the required 8560x1440p 144hz).

Any suggestions as to how to resolve this? I can provide more details if required. Thanks in advance.

However, for some games I find the 16:9 format to be not optimal and I would like to reduce the resolution to 3840x1800@120hz, so that there are black bars above and below the actual picture.

Currently, there's no way to create custom 4:2:0 resolutions, and I don't think NVIDIA's GPU scaling works with 4:2:0 resolutions. One way to know if GPU scaling is possible is check if 2560x1600 @ 120 Hz is available by default. If only 60 Hz is available, then it's not possible. If it is available, then I have something you can try.

Sadly, only 60 Hz is available. Thanks, though.

Literally answered in the first post, and NVIDIA Surround does not support mixed resolutions, so 8560x1440 won't be possible.

I have a gtx1060 and im trying to set a custom resolution in a window 10 hyper v machine, i did GPU passthrough and the machine recognized my GPU, however i cant run Nvidia Control Panel on it.

I followed the tutorial and created a custom resolution on CRU , reboot the machine but the new resolution ain't visible in:
Desktop > Display settings > Advanced display settings > Display adapter properties > Monitor tab

Do you know something about running the tool in a hyper V machine?

I haven't tested CRU in virutal machines. Is the NVIDIA driver installed in the virtual machine? What sort of monitor shows up in CRU?

The configurations of the virtual machine:



I also tested the GPU in some apps and its being recognized and working correctly.

My monitor support by default up to 1920x1080, i created a custom resolution in the host of 2560x1080 (because i use this computer from another that by default is 2560x1080)
using the CRU tool and it worked correctly, settings in the host:

When i connect to the machine using RDP i can select this resolution, but using other remote software like AnyDesk/TeamViewer
to connect to the machine i cant get past to 1920x1080.

Hi Can anyone advise me.
I upgraded my Packard Bell iStart 2311 from Win 7 to Win 10
Trouble is my Monitor is just not having it.
It's an AOC E2250SWDN (Optimal resolution 1920 X 1080 @ 60 Hz)

But in Win 10 I can only get lousy, lower resolutions (all @ 64 Hz)
So the screen is fuzzy & distorted (It worked fine on Win 7)

I tried to get dedicated drivers from AOC.
But AOC "support" messed me around for ages and then blew me off with "it's too old for Win 10":@

So I tried CRU.
I can add my 1920 X 1080 (@ 60 Hz) in Detailed and/or Standard ........ but (after restarts) nothing makes it appear in the advanced display options.

Am I wasting my time? I'm about ready to go back to Win 7 !
Thanks

You need to install the graphics driver for your GPU. It's hard to find any information about your computer because it's so old. I think this is the right driver: https://www.nvidia.com/en-us/drivers/results/82758/

64 Hz means the virtual monitor is connected to the Microsoft Hyper-V Video driver and not the NVIDIA GPU, so I don't know if there's a way to add custom resolutions.
