Display Mode Timing
The Display Mode Timing page is shown above. Select the proper timing mode for
your display device.
Auto-detect (default setting) allows Windows to receive the proper timing
information directly from your display device.
Note: Some older analog display devices may not support this feature.
General Timing Formula (GTF) is an older but widely used timing standard.
However, newer displays are switching to the CVT standard.
Discrete Monitor Timings (DMT) timing is a set of pre-defined VESA timings.
VESA updates this standard every year. If DMT timing is available for a specific
mode, the NVIDIA display driver normally selects it instead of the GTF standard.
Coordinated Video Timings (CVT) became the VESA standard on March 2003.
CVT supports higher resolutions better than other timings standards.
Fixed Aspect Ratio Timing forces the displayed image to retain the aspect ratio of
the mode rather than aspect ratio of the display device.
Enable doublescan for lower resolution mode. Enabling this setting greatly
improves image quality at lower resolution, which is most useful for full screen video
or computer games.
