Pimax Crystal OG locked to 72hz regardless of Refresh Rate set in PimaxPlay

As title says, the crystal's refresh rate gets locked to 72hz regardless of what was previously set in PimaxPlay. Setting preferredRefreshRate in steamvr's settings doesn't change it. I dont know if this issue (ValveSoftware/openvr#1276) is relevant here, as i'm running an AMD card.

Only the refresh rate you set in SteamVR will matter. The one set in Pimax Play is not used by the driver. Because you are on AMD, I believe the refresh rate change in SteamVR requires to restart SteamVR. Do that from the VR Settings -> Video screen. Don't edit your vrsettings file by hand.

The issue is, there aren't multiple options for the refresh rate in steamvr. it just states Refresh Rate: 72hz. There isn't a toggle for 90/120 or anything.

I've seen a few reports of people getting stuck on 72 Hz on the Dream Air as well with AMD. There seems to be some sort of issue in Steam VR related to AMD cards. But I do not have an AMD card to test with.

I pointed this out on reddit, but good to have an issue opened here. Definitely is locked to AMD cards, tried with my old nvidia and 90hz worked, must be some weird bug with the handover to steamvr. If any logs are needed, or if I can help in any way, let me know.
