DP X VGA
HDMI X VGA
DVI X VGA
after all, which one is better?

That depends on the video card. If the video card has a DVI-I port like the 7970 does, then a passive DVI-VGA adapter provides native VGA support through the video card. Other adapters would require conversion, which is fine if the adapter can handle the pixel clocks you need, but it may impact the ability to use interlaced resolutions. Newer cards don't have native VGA support and would require an active adapter.

toastyx, playing games with high Hertz interlaced resolutions, do you notice any difference playing?

One thing I realize here is that the movement is a bit more blurred, but in return the input lag is smaller, in games like cs go, controlling AK 47 recoiling at interlaced 162hz seems easier than at progressive 144hz.

But it may just be my impression.

I don't use interlaced resolutions.

I don't use interlaced resolutions.

but have you never tested to see how it looks?

I haven't used a CRT in a long time, and when I did, I didn't find interlaced resolutions to be pleasing.

I understand.
Have you ever seen a crt monitor arriving at 480hz?

No, even at a very low resolution, that would require a horizontal scan rate higher than most CRT monitors would support.

I have a metabox P650RS-G laptop with a 4k Screen that has G-sync. Would I be able to scale it down to 108P without having blur?

Hi ToastyX,

first thank for your great soft!
I have a question:
In the hdr metadata block, what does it mean to be "traditional gamma -sdr" (checked for me)
and "traditional gamma -hdr" (unchecked) ?

Also is it possible to create a dynamic metadata profil with CRU?

Hey guys, I was hoping someone could help me out with this one...
I'm using a HDTV connected via HDMI, and for some reason, fullscreen applications (games) cause the tv to fully restart when I launch them. Some of them, like RE2 Remake, causes it to restart even by going to the options menu. Even changing display settings on Nvidia control panel does it.
So today I found out about CRU, and deleting the extention blocks fixed this issue!
The problem is, since it is now recognized as a DVI connection, full range RGB is enabled. My tv doesn't really like fullrange and the colors get all messed up and oversaturated.

Is there anything I can do to make this work? Make it appear as DVI and keep limited range? Or maybe some combination that can stop it restarting when going fullscreen?
I already tried everything possible on the nvidia control panel.
