It seems like it still defaults to the 3k x 2k display. Below is a link to the problem. I can't tell if it is an AMD card issue or if it would be something solved in CRU?

Edit the extension block and edit the TV resolutions data block. If you see anything in bold, edit it and disable the "Native format" option. See if that makes a difference.

Thanks for your reply, but this didn't work out. Still stuck to the 3k x 2k display. I do think it may be a registry error or a setting inside the AMD card that i may be missing. The resolution is working, its just not at the recommended setting.

You need to check CRU, for compatibility with new WinX 1903 and Adrenalin 19.5.1 & 19.5.2
Some rare error ocured (redish screen, back to normal when switched to 8Bit)
With 10Bit + FreeSync settings in CRU.

Managed to get by it somehow.
With minimal options: without Rage limits (I've put always Range from Monitor Specs)

Specs -> Specs for IIyama

Just check if everything is fine (Radeon now runs in WDDM 2.6 Model)

Greets & THX

UPD.
I think i got what do this

Turned this OFF and no more Red screen bug (Bug is there if CRU is used)

My settings (1st OK, 2nd Red Bug)

CRU does not implement resolutions or FreeSync. That's up to the driver.

It's not a setting or registry issue. The first detailed resolution is supposed to be the recommended resolution, but either the driver is not changing the recommended resolution with the EDID override, or the driver might have implemented workarounds for TVs because some TVs don't put the highest resolution first. Try editing the HDMI data block and deleting the HDMI resolutions. If that doesn't help, try deleting the TV resolutions data block and add 3840x2160 @ 60 Hz as a detailed resolution if it's not already there. Also, delete any 4:2:0 resolutions and 4:2:0 capability map data blocks if they exist.

But, my question is if there's any possibility to use Custom Resolution Utility and make a "FreeSync" option with this Gsync monitor. At least, it goes to 144hz but I don't know if it matters. I really want to keep that monitor for the prize. Here in Spain 144hz monitor are more than 200€.

G-SYNC monitors act like normal monitors with AMD cards. You can't add FreeSync support to a G-SYNC monitor.

This is some EDID Read error in new Windows IMhO
It's OK now (managed to bypass this bug)
But i can't use my Old CRU settings with H/V from monitor specs.
Only basic (CRU default) + FS range at 30-70Hz

It's Ok now

I've Read through IiYama User manual and there is 2 different settings (H/V) for DP
With FreeSync & without !

IiYama ProLite XUB2792QSU
DP w/o FreeSync = H=30,0-89,0 V=50-75
DP w/FreeSync = H=30,0-115,0 V=48-70

Here is working setup with Windows new VRR FreeSync feature:

Hi Toasty, thanks for this amazing application! It helped me a lot so far.

However, I'm running against an annoying issue. Not sure if it can be solved with CRU, but I hope so.

I have a Denon X2400H connected via HDMI from my PC. My monitor is a 1440p DELL monitor which can only get to 1440p via DVI or DP. So I have an adapter block in the Denon receiver that converts the HDMI to DVI. I then had the issue that I could only select up to 1080p. I found CRU and I set a custom resolution for 1440p and it looks just like before, great!

However, my PC no longer passes through Dolby audio now. When I go to 1080p it works great. DTSX, Atmos, True HD, you name it, it works. But at 1440p it either gives no sound, or just gets listed as 'multi channel input'.

I can't imagine it's a bandwidth thing, right? Even at 4K with HDR it should work, so 1440p would be easy. My PC has a GTX 1070 and the Denon supports up to 4K with HDR. So what gives?

I found the HDMI audio blocks. Tried both the normal and bitstream blocks. No success. Tried to enter the 1440p resolution in the blocks but still no luck. I really don't want to switch to 1080p for games and Kodi every time I watch a movie or play a game with Dolby. And I don't want to get a 1080p or 4k monitor because this DELL is still brilliant.

Isn't there a way where I just output audio from my GPU, and connect the monitor via DVI as before?

Edit: Interesting read here with (I guess) the same issue that I have right now. https://hardforum.com/threads/possible-t...y.1976649/

I guess their 'solution' is to run a secondary screen for only audio, and directly connect the monitor via DVI. This creates some overhead, but if it works it's better then nothing...

You should be able to enable 30-bit deep color (10 bpc) in the HDMI data block to get 10-bit with 24/25/30 Hz. You might be able to get UHD 50 Hz to use 10-bit with custom timing parameters, but I'm not sure if the driver will allow 10-bit for non-TV resolutions.

Thanks, I'll give it a try using 10-bit with 24/25/30 Hz and report back.

Audio is transmitted during the blanking periods, so try increasing the horizontal/vertical blanking. Try entering 3840x2160 @ 60 Hz with "LCD standard" and then switch to "Manual" mode and just change the resolution to 2560x1440. That should be enough.
