Hello. Yesterday I've upgraded from gtx 780ti to 1070. In order to reinstall graphics driver, I had to update windows as well (I used DDU to reinstall graphics driver). After performing these actions, naturally, my custom resolutions were gone. Configured them again and launched a game but the game was not able to recognize the resolutions above 1080p. Now you would ask why am I using custom resolutions to use higher resolutions (I know about DSR). Because my monitor supports 60hz but I force it to 75. Many of you would say that its normal since 75hz is not supported by my monitor but I was able to use every resolution regardless the refresh rate before updating windows and reinstalling graphics driver. The weird thing is; If I create 1440p resolution with 60hz refresh rate, the game recognizes. But if the same resolution is created with 75hz, game does not recognize this resolution. Also, I am able to use 75hz 1080p. My conclusion is; this is something related to Windows but not sure. I wanna hear your thoughts/advices/solutions about this. And I dont want to use CRU since I was able to use the resolutions with 75hz before. Thanks in advance and if there are grammatical mistakes, sorry for them :)

The problem was related to GPU ports. One of the hdmi ports was not willing to work at higher resolutions and refresh rates. Switching the display cords solved the issue.
