https://www.testufo.com/frameskipping does not seem to work on 500 or 540hz? Cant get the status on Green/Ready? Chrome and Firefox? I get the "Sync Failure unable to Vsync error. Try closing all tabs an all aps" it works on 360hz.

i did get 540hz HDMI 2.1 working with no DSC, alt tab

not sure if changing 32gbps to 48gbps did anything
disabled dsc, chose 500 EDID in benq monitor
i have a 48gbps hdmi 2.1 (not zowies one) unsure if that changes anything

made a custom cru refresh

im not actually sure how high i can go with pixel clock in zowie, and i dont really wanna mess up new 1000 USD monitor :lol:

it def doesnt overclock, do not ret above 540hz, i had to use another monitor to get into CRU in windows to reset/change it
Nice 540hz on 500hz mode works. using standard hdmi 2.1 cable with your settings! ty!
It also worked without changing 32gbps to 48gbps or enabling Fast Vactiv.
Can u check if https://www.testufo.com/frameskipping works? Cant get the status on Green/Ready? Chrome and Firefox? I could net get it to work also before the overclock. I get the "Sync Failure unable to Vsync error. Try closing all tabs an all aps"

it works on 360hz.

Don't have Chrome or Firefox, but it does work on Microsoft Edge which is Chromium based iirc

yes weird huh. also tried it with gsync on. 480hz, 360hz is stable for 2 seconds then a stutter warning also in kiosk mode.




Unfortunately 499hz and 540hz gives the same error as before. Also after factory reset monitor.
240hz remains stable longer. i think its my ddr5 mem .
do u use dp 1.4 or hdmi 2.1 cable?

shall i rma the monitor?

I had it fixed by zowie last month cause I had a green line across the screen that would not go away. maybe its damaged somehow?

*Edit i used the dp 1.4 cable now instead of the hdmi 2.1 and 360hz remains stable. 540 hz works too for almost 10 seconds. Then a stutter warning. Do you get this too sometimes?

Edit 3 the framerate in hdmi 2.1 drops to 537 so i made a custom res with 537 hz. Now it remains stable for arround 10 secs then a potential browser stutter occures. Do u have this also?
