Custom resolution on GSync 360hz monitors

I have tested on both ASUS PG259QN and Dell AW2521H, any resolution/refresh rate combination that is not in the preset results in black screen. Tried 456.71 and 457.30 drivers, NVCP and CRU, DP and HDMI, Gsync off and on. Is this a known limitation of these monitors? It seems Chief managed to get cu...

Re: VG259QM black screen 2 -3 seconds issue

Previously I had the same issue with the monitor, sent it for RMA, they did not reproduce it, but upon sending back the issue seems gone. Searching for "vg259qm black screen" there is also a user reporting the same issue on reddit. I'd suggest to get a good DP 1.4 cable. In my experience the monitor...

Re: Question on Windowed mode DWM-vsync

The syncing behavior is also affected by the graphics library. For example in Direct3D 9, when creating the device, PresentationInterval controls the syncing behavior in Windowed mode: when vsync is off, D3DPRESENT_INTERVAL_DEFAULT will wait for vsync at present, and D3DPRESENT_INTERVAL_IMMEDIATE wi...

Re: CRU and benq zowie xl2546k

I'm not 100% sure but if you have the extension block open in CRU ( link for example picture, not mine) https://i.postimg.cc/LXHRn6kv/z03.png there should be 1280x1024 or some other 5:4 or 4:3 resolution. and copy those timings and adjust the vertical sync width according to your aspect ratio. for ...

Re: Official Asus ROG Swift 360Hz PG259QN Owners Thread

It seems that Asus limited the working resolutions. For example, at 1920x1080, timings for different Hz are different and are not interchangable. Each works with a narrow range. I re-forced it via a DisplayID block in the CEA-861 Area of ToastyX CRU. This time 433Hz worked again, I am not sure why N...

Re: Official Asus ROG Swift 360Hz PG259QN Owners Thread

I got this monitor and can't get custom resolution to work. In CRU, adding in "detailed resolution" does not show up, adding as CEA-861 extension block does show but any resolution (e.g. 1920x1080@75) results in black screen with "No DP signal", the PC is still responsive. NVCP does work and same bl...

Re: Some mysterious effects on gameplay

Update 2 - Single vs Dual channel won't make a difference on input delay. Technically it would make it worse as framerates are lower. 3200Mhz is objectively better as it has a higher bandwidth which matters the most, sounds like it's unstable. Thanks! Although I knew it was unstable I haven't fixed ...

Re: For people with input lag/desync ONLY in csgo (mainly faceit ac)

This controls the Win32PrioritySeparation registry field mentioned by multiple optimization guides, and basically controls the quantum size used by the windows kernel scheduler. Generally a large quantum size can minimize context switches and gives best performance while a small quantum size can hel...

Re: Some mysterious effects on gameplay

I should probably start by addressing pre-rendered frames... The different feeling between 0 and 1 pre-rendered frames reminded me of the following (anti-)pattern that are commonly seen in code: if (pre_rendered_frames > 0) { init_render_queue(); } // 10,000 lines later ... if (pre_rendered_frames ...
