Custom Resolution Utility is a small freeware utility that can tweak your NVIDIA and AMD graphics cards to create higher resolutions.
As a portable application, CRU does not require installation and can be run without installation.
The program layout provides a list of currently supported resolutions for your monitor with the option to add new ones.
The application isn't perfect, but if your monitor can support higher and different resolutions from what's displayed in your graphics control panel, Custom Resolution Utility will create EDID values in the registry so that you may select the resolutions in your graphics settings.
Currently supported GPUs are limited to some AMD/ATI and NVIDIA cards, as Intel GPUs are not supported.
It's worth pointing out that you should know what your monitor and GPU are capable of. If anything goes wrong, the download comes with an app called "reset-all.exe" which can be run to revert any changes you have made with Custom Resolution Utility.
Features of Custom Resolution Utility
- AMD/ATI's driver also listens to the TMDS clock limit in the HDMI support data block.
- Detailed resolutions are the preferred way to add custom resolutions.
- HDMI is treated as single-link DVI unless an HDMI support data block is defined in the first extension block.
- HDMI limits depend on the graphics card.
- Passive DisplayPort to HDMI adapters are limited to 165 MHz unless the driver is patched.
- The first detailed resolution is considered the preferred or native resolution.
