Refresh rate of XBOX One X

adydasyt · Dec 6, 2020

Hello, I currently have these questions:

Q1: When XBOX One X is set to 60Hz, is it outputting "true" 60.00Hz or 59.94Hz? And when XBOX One X is set to 120Hz, is it outputting "true" 120.00Hz or 119.88Hz? And what about the current new generation (XBOX Series X/S)?

Q2: When I play a 50Hz DVD or 24Hz Blu-Ray Disc, why my XBOX One X is still outputting 60Hz?

:)

Had this problem contacted vizio and I had to uncheck the allow variable refresh rate in tv&display options on the Xbox one x and also had to turn off variable refresh rate in the pro gaming engine in the advanced picture settings.

It would be 60Hz exactly. It's a standard refresh rate. In regards to 120Hz, there some different timings, not all of which the Xbox One X or newer Series X/S consoles support. If your display is 119.88 the Xbox won't support it as it's not a standard refresh,
although it may do in the future.

If your display can't change its refresh rate to 50Hz or 24Hz it will have to remain at 60Hz. It may be possible to play 24Hz, but you'll have to turn off VRR as this is usually beyond the scope of FreeSync.

50Hz is for TV content or documentary video on DVD, usually only found in Europe and Asian regions. 24Hz is common for movies and movie streaming worldwide on DVD, Blu-ray and streaming as films are usually recorded at 24 frames per second. If your display
can't change to 24Hz, video playback won't play as smooth.

Unlikely, as there is no purposes in doing so. as no Xbox software renders above 60hz. Your monitor already scales and doubles to a fixed refresh rate anyway. If you want high refresh rates you need to use a pC or possibly waiting for Series X

Understandable but the xbox one x does not even allow me to select 1440p option with VRR via freesync for my monitor. Shouldnt it work so games capped at 60 fps are matching with the monitors refresh rate if frames increase or decrease?

I'm afraid 60Hz is the maximum refresh for an Xbox One. You would need a One S or One X for 120Hz.

High refresh rates on consoles don't have the same impact as they do on PC. PC players go for high refresh rates because their hardware can reach the same frame rate as the refresh rate. I'm a PC player with a 144Hz 1440P monitor and with it I can hit upto
144 fps for silky smooth performance.

On console's they only have an impact on the screen image quality and controller to screen latency as most Xbox One games are locked at 30 fps.

The HDMI cable included with Xbox One X does support 4K 60 Hz refresh rates. Are you receiving an error that suggests it is not?
