  1. 144hz monitor capping out at 60hz


    Hi

    I have a Lenovo g24-10 144hz monitor and I have recently bought an Xbox series s to play 120fps on game. However when I set up the Xbox it didn't give me the option to use 120hz. My hdmi port is 1.4 and I've read this could be an issue, is there any fix? Or is buying an adapter and using display port at 1.2 a better option? Will that work?

    Thanks

    :)

    144hz monitor capping out at 60hz

    Monitors are meant to be used with computers, and many of them use less powerful hardware in the display and rely on the computer to assist with processing. The actual hardware inside the monitors almost certainly limited to 60 Hz. it's the electronics, not the panel that is the most important part of any display

    I checked the manual and this only does 60 Hz at 1080 P, check page 19. while the panel itself may be running at 144 Hz, the electronics driving it are not. I have 120 Hz and 240 Hz televisions, neither of words work with anything over 60 Hz. The first one was so that you could achieve 24 FPS playback, the second was for 3-D

    The maximum resolution is 1080 P 60 Hz

    If you see something that has a refresh rate not in ,multiples of 30 it's overclocked and presents problems with compatibility

    Monitors these days are for professional graphic and video work where things like color accuracy are important.. before high definition televisions, it was the only way to get an HD display.

    A good rule of thumb is if it doesn't retail for at least $500, it's not going to do 120 Hz native

    Monitor for my Xbox one X

    At this moment i think is better and wait a few more month to see the new gen hardware, because you can get 4k at 144hz at a good price.
    I agree, but...

    You'll have to make sure that a 4K 144hz monitor has HDMI 2.1 or you will still be limited to 60hz with the Xbox Series X or PS5

    But as of yet there is no 4K 144hz monitors with HDMI 2.1,

    HDMI 2.0 can do 4K at only 60hz,

    HDMI 2.1 can do 4K at 120hz.

    A lot of eye's are on this monitor... https://www.lg.com/us/monitors/lg-27gn950-b-gaming-monitor, as it could be the first 4K 144hz monitor with HDMI
    2.1.

    cant get 120hz

    I believe that you need to have a monitor that is Freesync and Freesync has to be supported over HDMI, as well as, the monitor needs to have HDMI 2.0 ports and supports 120/144hz, looking at that, and being G-sync, it seems to have HDMI 1.4 ports which limits
    it to 1440p at 60hz

    A new monitor is needed if you want 1440p at 120hz,

    Pulled this info from a website...

    "Nowadays, most of the monitors, TVs, and graphics cards feature at least an HDMI 1.4 port which is enough for 144Hz at 1080p, 75Hz at 1440p, and 30Hz at 4K.

    However, keep in mind that some monitors have limited bandwidth over HDMI 1.4 making it max out at 120Hz or even at 60Hz in some cases (mostly G-SYNC and older monitors).

    In fact, most 144Hz monitors are limited to 120Hz over HDMI 1.4, but some monitor manufacturers will use custom timing parameters, pixel rates, etc to use the full potential of the HDMI 1.4 bandwidth thus getting 144Hz at 1080p.

    So, make sure that the exact monitor you’re looking at supports 144Hz or at least 120Hz over its HDMI 1.4 port – or just look for a 144Hz display with HDMI 2.0.

    HDMI 2.0 is also fairly standard and can be used for 240Hz at 1080p, 144Hz at 1440p, and 60Hz at 4K. The latest HDMI 2.1 adds native support for 120Hz at 4K UHD
    and 60Hz at 8K."

    Best Gaming Monitor For Xbox

    When it comes to console gaming a 144hz monitor is really unnecessary, seeing as games are capped at 60fps. I use a 75hz monitor which I'm really happy with.
