Report a translation problem
For some reason my desktop resolution must be set to 1080p 120hz for -freq 120 to work too. I wish they would just use the settings from my drivers or my EDID (hacked or not). It seems they use neither.
A few things....my monitor supports 120hz at 1080p but it did not offer it in the EDID. Nvidia's control panel and CRU were used to add this custom resolution.
Without the custom resolution CS:GO resorts to 1080i 60hz for some reason, which makes no sense considering most games at least try to use 1080p 60hz.
Not sure where Source decides it's available resolutions and refresh rates...but it's annoying.
As soon as I add any AA whatsoever it resorts to 60hz. Removing the AA restores 120hz.
I also used Nvidia Control panel to add a custom resolution (1920x1080@88Hz) and with the 'start option' "-freq 88" it works, but only when AA is not active :/ Maybe it happens because of the custom resolution, but in that case why would it work without AA?...
I don't think we can find a solution to this without a developer that knows whats going on inside the engine :/
-w X -h Y -freq Z
Where X is your horizontal resolution
Where Y is your vertical resolution
Where Z is your overclocked refresh rate
Tell me if that worked for you since I haven't been able to test it on any other systems.
If you aren't using an overclocked monitor but can only use 60Hz in CS:GO with a 144/120Hz monitor, I would recommend using CRU to adjust the priority of the higher refresh rate resolution as I imagine this is where the bug stems from. Otherwise, you could try making a custom resolution with -1Hz from 144/120Hz and see if using that fixes the issue.
CRU helped me!
(btw. refreshlock did not help for this issue)
I also have nvidia, followed all steps and issue was resolved because I can simply choose HZ inside the resolutions menu, instead of adding a new resolution csgo isn't recognizing within +AA.
Thank you
Basically, make a custom resolution of your native resolution inside the AMD's Display category. Same Hz, same Width and Height of your native resolution, and then make it also inside the CRU "Custom Resolution Utility" same thing, Width Height and Hz. Then, any Resolution will work properly as it won't change to that res because I think, it won't force that resolution because the game thinks its a custom one, therefore you can play normally on different resolutions with different Hz amounts.
Cheers
