    Black screen after manual override of 120HZ


    Hi,

    Just recently bought the series s and Alienware AW2518H, monitor is 240HZ compatible but neither shows up on my xbox. I have manually over ridden the HDMI, and turned on 120hz but the screen goes black and turns back to 60HZ after 30 seconds. I’m using the HDMI 2.0 cable that comes with the xbox.

    :)

    Hi LIAMSHARMAN! My name is Ricardo an independent advisor ready to help you with this situation!

    If you have an Xbox Series S console, or if your TV doesn’t support HDMI 2.1, you can still enable 120 Hz gaming at a lower resolution. To do this, set your Refresh rate on the TV & display options screen to 120 Hz. If your resolution was previously set to 4K, the console will automatically adjust the resolution to support the 120 Hz refresh rate. Otherwise, select a resolution from the available options.

    If you own an Xbox Series S and wish to game in 4K@120Hz, you’ll need to acquire a certified Ultra High Speed HDMI cable.

    That a G-sync monitor and G-sync monitors don't play well with consoles and you'll only be limited to 60Hz, also a 240Hz monitor for consoles is so not worth it as in their a waste of money, as the consoles are not capable of getting anywhere near 240fps in games,

    Freesync or Adaptive sync monitors are whats needed, avoid G-sync only monitors for consoles.

    i have "override" the display in the options, disable autodetect, and manually configure it as 1080p/120Hz and now my monitor Sentey DOES recognize the entry display as 120fps instead of 60. thanks

    Why does my x box series s look terrible in game?

    In the display settings go to video fidelity & overscan.

    Click on overrides then go to hdmi and click use manual settings.

    Go back and put the resolution back to 1080p or 1440 and click yes.

    You should now be on 120hz and the in game picture will be fixed
