Owners of Freesync Monitors can enlarge Hz range with simple hack

One of the negative dependencies for AMDs FreeSync is that you are tied and limited towards the operational range in Hz the monitor is capable off. A new tool, let's call it driver mod allows you to change the parameters so you can enlarge the FreeSync range. Users in our forums report this to be working.

• Phoenix EDID Designer
• EnTech Monitor Asset Manager
• EnTech softMCCS

Here's what you need to do step for step (screenshot courtesy of OC_Burner). First you extract the EDID infomation into a file:

Enjoy the changed dynamic  range ... We have seen users report framerates as low as 33 Hz supported.
