How to use the 1ms MBR function of the gaming monitor

1ms MBR operation can be used by setting the vertical frequency supported in the monitor.
When booted with the PC, most of monitors will be unable to use the 1ms MBR function because the vertical frequency is started at 60hz.
If you want to use it, change the vertical frequency to at least 120hz as shown above.
