I have a monitor that supports 4K 144 hz but my Xbox series x doesn’t support it

:] :p · May 25, 2024

Recently I got my Xbox Series X. I plugged it into my TV and it allows 4K 120 fps. When I connect it to my monitor, it doesn’t work. It says my monitor is not compatible with 120 fps and 4K. My monitor is a Acer Predator XB271HU bmiprz 27 inch. It’s been almost 4 months and I haven’t fixed this problem yet

i'm sorry your monitor will only except 60 Hz over HDMI

Monitors often choose less expensive internal electronics and use display port to make the computer do the work for them.

Real hardware to do real 120 Hz display, is very expensive. in fact many of the cheaper monitors only have 60 Hz panels but the hardware will accept the input and scale it down to 60 Hz from 120.

HDMI 1.4 is suitable for supporting 144 Hz at a resolution up to 1080p. However, there are some specific monitors that can only support up to 120 Hz at 1080p resolution. So, you should check that first if your monitor is capable of handling 144 Hz over HDMI.

Hi, Casper. My name is Ron, I'm an independent advisor. I will be more than happy to help you.

The 144 Hz monitor should work fine with an Xbox Series X console. Make sure you set the refresh rate properly in the Xbox Series X settings.

Hello i am having the same issue here. And i do see that the monitor supports these outputs. Can someone please look into this as the Xbox One X settings will change my settings to 1080p 120 hz when I select the 1440p 120hz option available when using my
HDMI 2.0 port on the monitor utilizing a HDMI 2.0 cable:

Monoprice 27in Zero-G Gaming Monitor – 2560x1440p, WQHD, 144Hz, 1ms, FreeSync, HDR Support, 400nits, HDMI, DisplayPort, TN

If someone from Microsoft can please assist as this is very frustrating and leaning towards me not purchasing an Xbox series X, and I will post a youtube videos for other viewers to be aware of this matter.

This is the actual monitor specs please read the port supports provided.

support:

HDMI 2.0: 50 ~ 144 Hz

HDMI 1.4: 50 ~ 75 Hz

DisplayPort 1.2: 50 ~ 144 H

I just wanted to state an update. I even tested the HDMI 2.0 port into my pc/windows 10 and in fact the resolution was set to 2560 x 1440p and I was able to toggle changes between 60hz, 75hz, 120hz, and 144hz with no problem and acceptance in the display
settings for the monitor.
