-===== 4K@60Hz RB =====
+  * :!: Anything here expects Xorg and not Wayland
+  * ''Identifier'' will need changed for different display connections and drivers
-  * 4k@60Hz CVT-RB
+====== Config File ======
-  * Fixes unstable HDMI at 4K@60Hz, and overly-bright colors on DisplayPort
-  * :!: The ''grep'' here confirms the expected Modeline ((if grep reports nothing, use whatever is reported instead))
-  * :!: This cannot be used on Wayland currently
-  * :!: This expects ''amdgpu'' DDX driver to be used ((''modesetting'' has a 4K RB resolution without any settings require on Xorg))

+  * Last updated: 2022/05/18
+  * :!: The ''Identifier'' expects ''modesetting''
+  * :!: It's better to [[notes:kernel_parameters#custom_resolution|use a kernel option]] as it applies to both Wayland and Xorg

 ===== Deep Color =====
+  * https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/30bpp
+  * https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/AMDGPU#10-bit_color
   * The lack-of quotes around ''30'' is intentional and required syntax
-  * :!: This may cause minor issues with programs not expecting 30-bit color ((GpuTest's fur ring doesn't render right, RS's NXT client's splash screen is gray))
+  * :!: This may cause apps to crash
-  * :!: This can cause games in Wine to not start under some circumstances ((FFXIV crashes on start-up due to a DirectX error))
-  * There is no known benefit to enabling this as of 2019/10/22
