While connecting my XFX Radeon RX460 Slim to a Samsung 900SL CRT monitor via a DisplayPort to VGA converter cable, 1600x1200@76Hz is not available, despite the factory specs...

1600 x 1200 / 76 Hz
1600 x 1200 / 70 Hz
1600 x 1200 / 65 Hz
1280 x 1024 / 89 Hz
1024 x 768 / 119 Hz
800 x 600 / 152 Hz
640 x 480 / 160 Hz

When attempting to create a new custom mode...

I have an NVIDIA GeForce GTX1060 passed through to a Windows 10 VM, connected via a DisplayPort to VGA, and VGA to BNC 5-pin connector, in this case, 1600x1200 is available and displays a correct image.

I have also tried to connect the RX460 with the DP-VGA-BNC cable, which yielded the same result.
