Custom Resolution Utility (CRU) is a program that allows you to create custom resolutions for your monitor, as long as they are supported. With Custom Resolution Utility (CRU), you can choose the resolution and refresh rate you want, depending on what your screen can handle. This way, you can get the most out of your computer's image quality and performance.

How Custom Resolution Utility (CRU) works

Custom Resolution Utility (CRU) is able to show you how your monitor defines resolutions, and gives you the power to change it. In addition to adding resolutions, you can delete those you don't want to use. You'll also be able to edit FreeSync ranges, and much more. Custom Resolution Utility (CRU) adds monitor resolutions, not scaled resolutions. If you want to scale lower resolutions up to the monitor's native resolution, you should instead use the graphics driver's control panel. If you use a laptop, the display usually doesn't give you the option to scale non-native resolutions.

Requirements to use Custom Resolution Utility (CRU)

To use Custom Resolution Utility (CRU), you must take into account what kind of extension you use with your monitor, as the pixel rate changes depending on the type of cable you use. DVI cables are limited to 165 MHz, while HDMI 1.4 cables support 340 MHz. HDMI 2.0 supports 600 MHz. Custom Resolution Utility (CRU) supports AMD, NVIDIA and Intel graphics cards by creating modifications in the registry without having to change .INF files.

If you want to create custom resolutions for your Windows monitor, then download Custom Resolution Utility (CRU).

Who even needs this. There is already such a function in the Nvidia display settings.

Since I've been using cru.exe, it's been working poorly on my PC for all video games. What can I do?
