Topic: Good news! You'l be able to set custom refresh rates on intel laptops!

Intel-based laptops, as well as Optimus/Enduro laptops will finally get an ability to set custom resolution and refresh rates... FINALLY.

So you can try (in a ~month) 72Hz for better fluidity and quality of video playback and gameplay. https://communities.intel.com/thread/78158

Bryce@Intel:
Hello all,Alright, good news... ready for it? The code changes have been approved AND completed! Okay who wants to buy me a pint now? kidding kidding

Now we're clearing up validation to ensure nothing is broken by the changes and then we should get clearance for build. Keep your fingers crossed for a clear path. Just to set realistic expectations because people are very understandably eager.. this can still be a month or a little more out, but believe me we're over the hard part and I'm pushing daily to get this expedited as much as possible. If I get a build schedule I'll update here. I regret it's taken so long though I'll certainly be celebrating this one when it's closed out. Thanks all.

P.S. If somebody hasn't seen yet, check out a suggested SVP crop enhanced capability. http://www.svp-team.com/forum/viewtopic.php?id=3615. Perhaps if you like it and show support then it will be implemented.

As I understand this will be done in the way "CRU override", not through classic Intel resolution settings. Also it will work for Ivy Bridge and above if not mistaken (so no Sandy Bridge HD3000).
And yeah, it will be brought to us "in a month or a little more" because driver is passing final validation testing.

So, here we go! https://downloadcenter.intel.com/downlo … est-Driver
As users claim this works only with 4th and 5th generation on Windows 10 and only 5th on Windows 7 and 8.1. Usable only with CRU not via control panel.

I've installed the driver and CRU.
Tried @50 Hz and @72 Hz modes on my core i5-5257U. I see artifacts on the screen. hmm
So I need to read instructions by your link. Then I will try again. wink

Hmm, should be as easy as launching CRU, adding new herz mode (so would be 2 or more, LCD standard for beginning), pressing OK and the restarting OS. After which you could try new mode through Windows monitor settings.
Of course you could make a backup of OS just in case.

Does this method work for you?

Re: Good news! You'l be able to set custom refresh rates on intel laptops!

Кстати, успешно использую разгон монитора на HD4600 (Haswell) c win64_15.36.34.4889 драйверами. Единственный минус - это ограничение на ~104Hz или около того самой встройкой. Экран LG вроде как вполне способен выдать больше, но просто значение в CRU выше определенной х-ки не отображается после перезагрузки в Панели Интел, только те, которые ниже.
