Custom monitor timings

[Sarge_2]

Does anyone know anything about what front/back porch right/left border and other such settings are when making custom monitor resolutions. What do they actually do and how do I know what to set them to. Some monitor in the past I've been able to find out what these values should be but for many monitors I can't find what to set the values to.

A program called powerstrip allows you to do this using it for windows, I think you can try it for 30 days free but after that you need to buy it.

It sets the front/back porch right/left automatically for you depending on the refresh rate etc.

Much easier than editing / messing around in the registry.
