What GPU and TV do you have? Are you using HDMI? You can delete the extension block and make your own. As long as 24 Hz doesn't exist in CRU, it shouldn't exist at all. If you're using HDMI, you'll need to include HDMI support. You can import hdmi-audio.dat to take care of that. If the TV supports HDMI 2.0 (required for 3840x2160 @ 60 Hz), then you'll need to manually add an HDMI 2.0 data block as well (default settings are fine).

Neither is more accurate. The refresh rate = pixel clock ÷ horizontal total ÷ vertical total. The pixel clock is limited to two decimal places, so it's not always possible to get an exact value. Even if it's exact, there's no guarantee the hardware clock would match perfectly. Just use whatever works. "LCD native" just uses the 60 Hz "LCD standard" timing parameters because that sometimes helps with TV resolutions. I also have a tool for calculating the totals necessary to get exact refresh rates: https://www.monitortests.com/pixelclock.php

2560x1440 @ 60 Hz monitors with scalers are usually not overclockable.

I'm using recommended drivers from thread - 15.40, but still can't get anything above 60hz (out of range error on monitor). Any advice? Sorry if questions like this to annoying
To get higher refresh rates with that monitor, you need to use DisplayPort, not HDMI.

Now i´ve upgraded my rig and i have adquired a 1070 from NVIDIA and i´m capable of create a new profile of the monitor with the CRU at 75 Hz as well as with the NVIDIA control panel, but it doesnt work nicely. Both of them work with the same kind of weirdness.

When i try the UFO test it runs weird at this refresh rate, with the 390 it worked nice. When i try the UFO test with 75 Hz i can see the alien stoping and going, stoping and going ( if i run it with 60 Hz it goes smooth like butter). When i run games like dota i can see it runs weird too. I know this monitor is freesync capable, but i dont think this can affect to the UFO test or games like dota, as my rig can run this graphics without problem and it should run the 75 Hz or 75 FPS with no downrates at all.

What can be going on?? How can the graphics card affect to the overclock of the monitor? Is there something i can modify in the configuration of CRU that can solve my problem? I have become a 75 Hz player and cant return back now.
That monitor requires FreeSync to get 75 Hz. Without FreeSync, it acts like a 60 Hz monitor and skips frames at higher refresh rates.
