I do know that Linux X11 (amdgpu kernel driver, modesetting X11 driver) tends to drive my DVI 1080p display with too high of a pixel clock (too large blanking intervals) when connected over a HDMI-to-DVI cable from my GPU. I believe this is because there's actually a duplication of mode selection logic between the amdgpu kernel driver and X11. I've reported another (system hang) amdgpu/X11 resolution bug at https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/xorg/driver/xf86-video-amdgpu... with no progress towards being resolved so far. Neither bug appears on Wayland, but mainstream Wayland desktop environments (KDE/GNOME) do not allow adding custom resolutions through xrandr without overriding EDID files and either rebooting for the kernel to see it, or touching files in /proc/ (untested).
