#15 Forcing games to use highest refresh rate? in Hardware

Alright, thanks a bunch for all the information!

#13 Forcing games to use highest refresh rate? in Hardware

Hmm, well that leads to me ask another question of you, if you don't mind, Smaka. On certain games such as GTA 4 in which there is no option for Antialising, I make use of a technique called downsampling. Basically it renders the game at whatever res I choose, such as 2160p, and scales it down to fit my monitor, giving me an effect similar to 2x Supersampling AA. Would this potentially effect anything in my monitor as well?

Thanks for all the info, I had no clue what I was potentially doing to my monitor.

OK then, I'll drop it back down to 120. I just assumed there would be no issue with it as I noticed no problems arise. Didn't overheat, didn't have any artifacts or pixel fidelity issues or anything like that.

But yeah, I'll pull it back to 120hz and just use that. Thanks for the food for thought everyone.

nataponbut if you are that keen, have u set -freq 122 in your lauch options?

I have and it does not work. I have tried all of the different variations even though from what I remember, those launch options do nothing for tf2. It's also not just a TF2 specific thing, it happens when any game goes into fullscreen at 1080p.

visitnigDoes making it run at the extra 2ghz actually cause a noticeable difference?

Other than 2 more frames being displayed, not really I guess. It's more of a situation where I know my monitor can handle it and I want to figure out how to make it work.

In my mind it's somewhat comparable to overclocking. Sure you can get your cpu for example, up to 3.8ghz or so, but what if you took a bit of time to inch out 3.85 and know that you're getting the absolute most out of what you paid for.

The Nvidia driver should allow you to configure the resolution and refresh rate, but if you can't get it to work. CRU is an alternative that works for AMD and Nvidia.

Well, I've set up the resolution in the control panel through the custom resolution button. And my driver recognizes it, said it passed the custom resolution test, and I have it as my current resolution on my desktop. But whenever I try to launch a game at full-screen at 1920x1080, it reverts back to 120hz. If I were to run the game in windowed mode, it would use the 122hz resolution. But I would like to try to find a way to make it work in fullscreen, for Vsync in other games, and gamma in TF2 and such.

#1 Forcing games to use highest refresh rate? in Hardware

I have a BenQ XL2410T that's native resolution is 1920x1080 @ 120hz. However, after some messing around with different resolution setups, I've found that it can handle 122hz at that resolution, without any graphical anomalies or issues. The issue is that whenever I set games to use 1080p my monitor is forced into using 120hz instead of 122hz. The temporary solution I've found is to create a res at 1920x1078 at 122hz which works, but with me being me, I have to try to figure out someway to be able to use my monitor to its highest potential, even if it is only 2 pixels and 2 hertz.

I'm running windows 7 with a gtx 670, 314.22 drivers. I have the option in the control panel to force the highest refresh rate enabled, but it always reverts back to 120hz when at 1080p. I've tried editing the EDID hoping to see some section where I could define the monitor's native resolution to 1080p 122hz, but couldn't find anything. I was able to set the refresh rate range from 56-122 however.

I know my monitor can handle it, but whenever games run in fullscreen (I don't really like running games in windowed if I can help it) it reverts to the lower refresh rate.

He's really been working hard to get better, he's been pugging almost every time I see what he's up to. Good player and great to talk to. I think one if his life goals is to have a frag video with this one Hoodie Allen song on it, it's his favorite, don't let him tell you anything else.

Also the best icecream scooper this side of the missippippi, before he retired. RIP
