    Allow variable refresh rate grayed out

    Hi guys

    Yup i needed to turn it on in the settings 😂 rookie mistake.

    so now i have enabled varible and 120hz, it changed it to 1080p and not 1440, if i select 1440 then it changes to 60hz, is that right?

    can i not have 120hz with 1440?

    Allow variable refresh rate grayed out

    Hello Warning!

    Can you give us a few more details about what is greyed out? Is it he options regarding 4K features for the Xbox One X. If that is the case you would need to be connected to a 4K TV for it to automatically detect and give you access to those settings.

    Hope this helps

    Thanks for reaching out I look forward to your reply for more information about your issue
