Hey
Today I got my new 5850 and did the switch from nvidia to ati and it hasn't been problem free yet.
I can only seem to get 60hz in games and other fullscreen apps, even if I use the refreshlock in CCC or other programs like RefreshLock. I tried changing the DALNonStandardModes in the registry but it didn't help.
The monitor i'm using is a 2233RZ 1680x1050 and it works perfectly fine with 120hz as long as I am on the desktop.
I've got the same problem, but I'm using an old CRT screen. I've tried several different monitor drivers,
I even tried ripping the EDID pins out of the DVI to Dsub converter, but I'm still stuck at 60Hz! 8(
got v-sync enabled?
Powerstrip should do it...may take a little fiddling though!
Matty: It\'s a standard problem and nothing to do with vsync.
ATI driver fail, what a shocker! :oQuote:

Always easy to point the finger :p
I tried powerstrip, and customised monitor infs, I even found an EDID firmware flashing thingy but its no good for my old CRT.
I think it must be related to the Eyefinity surroundview feature somehow, maybe they just thought most LCDs users would care anyway,
but as a hometheatre user I'm a bit pissed about it.
Fermi here I come...
