Configuring Key ForceWare Graphics Driver Features
Advanced Timing
The Advanced Timing page enables you to adjust timings for your NVIDIA GPU-
based graphics card in order to support a variety of different display timings for
ultimate flexibility for analog CRT and DVI connections.
Note:
The
Advanced Timing
button is not available for certain NVIDIA GPU-based
graphics cards with a DVI connector in use. DVI timing adjustment is
supported for NV3
x
-based graphics cards only if they have an external TMDS,
such as the SiliconImage 164. If the graphics card uses the internal TMDS, then
the Advanced Timing button is not available. However, graphics cards that
use the internal TMDS can support refresh rates below 60 Hz using the current
NVIDIA Release 60 driver.
Note:
To use the
Advanced Timing
page, you must be an
advanced user
and familiar
with the concepts of display timing standards and parameters. If you are not
familiar, it is recommended that you do not use the Advanced Timing page.
For additional details, refer to the following documents that explain display
timing standards
>> VESA and Industry Standards and Guidelines for Computer Display Monitor
Timing (DMT)
published by the Video Electronics Standards Association
(VESA)
>> Coordinated Video Timing Standard
