The pic posted is how I normally run - I only did the refresh sync to content to have hard numbers to give you. The desktop settings are irrelevent on my main rig as the "desktop" is the TV and the capabilities are all sent back from the TV thru the amp to the GPU via HDMI handshaking. So the TV & amp will report that they handle 1080/24p and 1080/60p. The GPU can override them to settings I give it as need be.
@STEELMAN - exactly, there are some sync issues on start and skip as the code has to search packets for sync frames to lock on to. That cannot be avoided, nor is it really an issue.
We got pretty far off-topic here, but given the discussion wandered to dropped frames I wanted to let you know what is working well. Bluray has probably had hundreds of posts over the last year recommending the same GPU series, which for $35 solves a lot of issues.
For those who can't live with the dropped frames (just like I can't live without my 24bit audio lol) try this card or try the Re-Clock route. I can tell you which is easier
