ATTENTION!
I was informed that there are older revisions of the CS24A/P that also have older scaler and firmware!!!
I do not recommend purchasing this monitor due to issues with the revision!!!

Hi everyone, I bought a new CS24A 600hz monitor and I'm sharing some interesting things I saw.

In the monitor settings, I select "image ratio" Full (Square) and after applying 1280x960 it becomes native, this is the first time I've seen this :)

Hi there!
I have same monitor, but idk why I cant change aspect ratio. Setting is just greyed. When I play cs even at 1280x960 monitor osd report what current image res is 1920x1080. Can you please give some more info about your setup: gpu, display port wire, and current osd settings.

Connecting devices on the ASRock B650 PG Lightning motherboard:
The first port for the mouse is connected to the processor through the ASMEDIA controller, and the second port is connected directly to the chipset, so you should connect the keyboard to it, and you will have to give up all other USB devices because these devices will interfere with interrupts, etc. Connect the headphones via mini jack.
Also, do not connect anything using Type-C.
Some information: If you want to stream, then you need to purchase a PCIe capture card. Do you also want to connect a USB microphone and webcam? Then you also need to purchase an external PCIe USB controller.

In the monitor settings, I enable the OverClock mode and after MBR+ I set it to 0, since this is an analogue of BFI/DyaC; my eyes just start to hurt from this technology.

You would have realized this sooner if you'd listened to me. I've told you repeatedly that there are custom resolutions for DisplayScaling that the manufacturer sets in the monitor itself.
