Hi all,
I need help to get 144hz out of my monitor after an upgrade as I am locked at 60hz at minute.
Before I upgraded I had:
Windows 7 Pro
Gigabyte GTX760 4GB
AOC G2460PQU
Gigabyte Z68-XP-UD5
Intel 2700K
24GB Corsair 1866 Ram
Corsair CX750M
120GB Kingstone SSD Now
2 x Seagate 1TB HDD
Asus Pheobus Solo
What I changed was:
The power supply to a Be Quiet straight power 800w
Graphics Card to a XFX Fury Nano 4GB HBM
O/S to Windows 10 Pro Retail/USB (Clean install)
With the previous setup I was connect to the monitor using the DVI cable provided by AOC in the box and I could get 144hz no problems. I purchased a 2 meter Star Tech Displayport 1.2 cable for the new graphics card and am currently using that. Windows 10 is seeing my monitor as an AOC G2460G5 and not what it is a G2460PQU so I am locked to 60hz. I am using the latest hotfix driver on AMD website and have changed the power option for best performane as I have read that fixed it with a few people but unfortunately not for me.
Do any of you have any suggestions as to what I could do to fix this or have I not done something correctly? Any suggestions would be greatly received.
