Right you both seem to be afflicted but the same issue.

You can use gtf or cvt to generate modelines and add them manually with xrandr.

See r600_dpm_get_vblank_time() in r600_dpm.c for the formula:

line_time_us = (mode.crtc_htotal * 1000) / mode.clock;
vblank_lines = mode.crtc_vblank_end - mode.crtc_vdisplay;
vblank_time_us = vblank_lines * line_time_us;
