refresh rate at low monitor resolutions

[naporitan]

Hi all, I'm interested in one thing with monitors

I checked the manual of two @240 Hz monitors and one monitor hardware supports only 1080p at @240 Hz, and the second monitor has more resolutions supporting @240 Hz.

what is the reason?

XL2546


ViewSonic XG2431

The reason is that you are a very smart guy with impressive analytical skills.
In previous topics, based on the data from the XL2546
Resolution file table.pdf , you masterfully determined the unfortunate fact for you =\ your monitor is broken.
Based on the data in this table, I would like to ask you to check something.

Check if your monitor has VGA and DVI-DL connectors.
If you don't find these connectors, they've probably fallen off. And your monitor is broken, or you've been sold a fake.

you didn't understand the question

There's a limit to how many modes the EDID can store. Also, some display manufacturers simply don't care.

With that being said, just use GPU scaling, then you don't have to care about anything else then the native res of the display. At least on Nvidia 1600 and 2000 series and newer, GPU scaling is bicubic (1000 series and older used bilinear,) so it's pretty great. No reason to not use it.

I don't know what AMD does though.

and how do you explain that? why prioritize resolutions at 1280x960, 1024x768?

Because this monitor is preferred by cs players, and they like 1280x960, and some of them want the "active signal mode" and "desktop mode" to be the same 1280x960 600hz and in the monitor menu to have the numbers 1280x960 600hz.

If the edid contains information 1280x960 only 60hz
Then when trying to use these timings "active signal mode" and "desktop mode" and the monitor itself will show the numbers 1280x960 60hz. Aspect ratio is available in the monitor menu.

As soon as you try a frequency higher than 60hz, for example 1280x960 144hz, then "active signal mode" will show the numbers 1920x1080 144hz and "desktop mode" 1280x960 144hz, and the monitor itself will show the numbers 1920x1080 144hz. Aspect ratio is not available in the monitor menu.

If we judge by all the signal options for this monitor, then it should have 3-4 different edid, it sounds like nonsense, I understand.

But that's not what you want to hear.
