First of all, thank you for your work.I'm trying to extend the low end of the FreeSync Range of an AOC C24G1 over DisplayPort. If I set it as you suggest on the guide ("Edit..." at the top, then changing "V rate" and checking "Include if slot available", and then running restart.exe) nothing changes and Radeon Software reports the stock FreeSync range.However, if i use the HDMI method (even though I'm using a DisplayPort cable) then Radeon Software does report whatever range I set in CRU, but when I boot a game, I get random black screens.What I'm doing wrong? Thank you. 10-18-2021, 11:30 AM RE: Custom Resolution Utility (CRU) (10-17-2021 12:57 AM)pneumatic Wrote: Hello,Is it possible to force a "pixel format" setting (eg.

I now suspect my TV is the culprit and is downconverting to 4:2:2 internally as part of its video processing. 10-18-2021, 06:40 PM (Last edited: 10-18-2021, 06:42 PM by roadworrier) RE: Custom Resolution Utility (CRU) I've got an Acer VG270U. With Windows 10 Pro 20H2 and my previous video card I couldn't get 2560x1440 which is native for this display, so I ordered a new Radeon HD5450 supposedly could do 2560x1440 and worked with Windows 10. I still can't get 2560x1440 with HDMI. 1920x1080 is the best I can see: But if I launch CRU, it looks like the Detailed resolution lists the native resolution. Since that's the resolution I want, I'm not sure how to get CRU to set it for me; since it seems that's what the system already has... but it doesn't show up as an option. (I did create a saved resolution exe, ran it, did restart64... but that didn't work.)FWIW I can get 2560x1440 with this display just fine with my MacBook Air, as well as with a Dell laptop with Windows 10.Since I just bought this video card I don't mind returning it, I'm not a gamer, and I don't use audio through HDMI, I just want to do work on this machine. It seems all of the drivers for this card are pretty old from AMD.But rather than return it, I'd prefer to just be able to tell Windows it can send 2560x1440 to the card. 10-19-2021, 01:23 PM RE: Custom Resolution Utility (CRU) (10-18-2021 06:40 PM)roadworrier Wrote: Fix 1 – Use the Custom Resolution Utility (CRU) The Custom Resolution Utility (CRU) tool can help you set a custom resolution on your system.

2025-03-25Disattivare CRU finché non si risolve il problema.Aggiungi risoluzioni a CRUAggiungi risoluzioni a Custom Resolution Utility è facile. Basta aprire CRU e dargli l'autorizzazione amministrativa ad apportare modifiche al registro di sistema. Verrà visualizzata una finestra con le opzioni di visualizzazione e sarà possibile modificare la configurazione come desiderato. È possibile copiare e incollare le istruzioni dal pannello superiore per comandi specifici.Forzare le risoluzioni personalizzate su Windows Forzare Windows 10 o 11 a inserire risoluzioni personalizzate varia a seconda della scheda grafica, in particolare per AMD e NVIDIA. Come regola generale, è possibile fare clic con il tasto destro del mouse sul desktop per richiamare il menu e selezionare la risoluzione personalizzata dal pannello di visualizzazione o aspetto. Se questo non funziona, potrebbe essere necessario riconfigurare la CRU.Modificare la risoluzione del monitorCustom Resolution Utility è un modo eccellente per aggiungere risoluzioni personalizzate per il monitor di Windows. Anche se gli utenti di PC standard potrebbero non averne bisogno, è utile in altri settori, come lo sviluppo di videogiochi.Anche se si commette un errore, esistono modi sicuri per ripristinare le impostazioni normali del PC. È anche possibile utilizzare i collegamenti sul desktop per accedere rapidamente a una delle risoluzioni create.Custom Resolution Utility - CRU 0/5Specifiche tecnicheTitoloCustom Resolution Utility - CRU 1.5.1 per WindowsRequisitiWindows 10Windows 8.1Windows 11Windows 8Windows 7LinguaLingue disponibiliIngleseLicenzaGratisUltimo aggiornamento30 settembre 2022AutoreToastyXSHA-178e0d5686e79cb453926334842c6262380e0680aNome filecru-1.5.1.zipProgramma disponibile in altre lingueCustom Resolution Utility - CRU downloadCustom Resolution Utility - CRU herunterladenTélécharger Custom Resolution Utility - CRU下载 Custom Resolution Utility - CRUPobierz Custom Resolution Utility - CRUDescargar Custom Resolution Utility - CRUCustom Resolution Utility - CRU をダウンロードするChangelogNon abbiamo ancora informazioni sul changelog per la versione 1.5.1 di Custom Resolution Utility - CRU.

If anyone has an idea how I can reduce my VRAM clock speed, I would be very grateful.All three monitors are needed, ideally with the appropriate resolution, theoretically I would only need the maximum Hz number on monitor 1.thanks 11-28-2024, 11:08 PM RE: Custom Resolution Utility (CRU) (11-28-2024 10:02 PM)y.c Wrote: Hello everyone,I need your help with the following case.My RX 7900 xt permanently clocks the VRAM boost at 2487 MHz.I've already played around with cru, but I don't understand everything yet, so I just wanted to ask here if anyone knows the optimal settings for my monitor configuration.1.

There's no way to synchronize the monitors with three different resolutions and three different refresh rates unless all the monitors support some form of variable refresh rate (M34d doesn't). This would happen on NVIDIA as well. 11-30-2024, 08:47 AM RE: Custom Resolution Utility (CRU) Hello i recently downloaded the CRU resolution changer and i deleted all resolutions and restarted my laptop now i have a black screen 11-30-2024, 05:00 PM RE: Custom Resolution Utility (CRU) (11-30-2024 08:47 AM)banderman Wrote: Hello i recently downloaded the CRU resolution changer and i deleted all resolutions and restarted my laptop now i have a black screen (09-07-2012 09:06 PM)ToastyX Wrote: Before making any changes, familiarize yourself with booting Windows in safe mode using a recovery drive in case you can't see the

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.
