Hi All,
How can use this feature? The maximum resolution that play games are either 1024x768 or 1600x1200. I alway use 85Hz refresh rate. (my desktop resolution is 1024x768)

What is the purpose of "Use DCC" button? When I click in, it will over ride the refresh. Otherwise I am plagued by the horrible 60Hz refresh that hurts my eyes.

Thanks.
 
Well, the point of DDC is that your monitor stores information in it. DDC just takes that information off and gives your the appropriate resolutions and refresh rates without the drivers, however, they are only basic. Most newer monitors support this feature. You can use refreshlock or refreshforce to use custom refreshrates that your monitor supports. You can get either one at www.guru3d.com/. I personally use refreshforce and have since I can remember and it's always worked fine. I wouldn't use the ATI one as it's the same one that's built into the DX subsystem It will force ALL resolutions 85Hz no matter what resolution. There is one issue though that's pretty common i've found(with refreshforce). Sometimes on games that require to start up in a 60Hz refresh rate won't startup at all. Half-Life 2 gave me this problem but was fixed by a simple Startup Launch option.

Sorry for the long ass reply. Hope that helps man.
