Try one of these:
ModeLine "1600x1200@60x" 162.00 1600 1664 1856 2160 1200 1201 1204 1250 +hsync +vsync
ModeLine "1600x1200@65x" 175.50 1600 1664 1856 2160 1200 1201 1204 1250 +hsync +vsync
ModeLine "1600x1200@70x" 189.00 1600 1664 1856 2160 1200 1201 1204 1250 +hsync +vsync
ModeLine "1600x1200@75x" 202.50 1600 1664 1856 2160 1200 1201 1204 1250 +hsync +vsync
ModeLine "1600x1200@85x" 229.50 1600 1664 1856 2160 1200 1201 1204 1250 +hsync +vsync


put that in /etc/syslog.conf
*.*  -/var/log/allmessages


I can use 1600x1200 with 85hz
