I tried to specify refresh rate and this time the video mode has changed
properly.

The mode setting algorithm still needs to be improved, as there are many games
that do their own mode switching and do not specify refresh rate assuming
(pretty logically) that the driver would take care about little details
(including choosing of highest possible viewable frequency).
