    Unable to choose 120hz and 1440p on Xbox Series X


    I am unable to select 120hz and 1440p at the same time on two different monitors. The message i get from the display options is that the monitor does not support the refresh rate at the resolution, so goes back down to 60hz. I can run 120hz on 1080p.

    The monitors i have:

    AOC AGON AG241QX

    LG 32GK650F-B

    I have tried every combination you can think of on both the display settings and monitor settings, turning settings on and off trying to make it work but it does not let me run 1440p and 120hz at the same time. I am using HDMI 2.0

    :)

    120Hz at 1440p

    For the Xbox one X you have to choose one or the other reguardless of the monitors specs. Either 1080p at 120hz or 1440p at 60hz. The Series X thats coming in November will support 4k at 120hz at the same time. 👍

    Do I Need A Xbox Series X or S To Have 4K Resolution At 120hz?

    You will need the Xbox Series X for 4K 120hz. The Series S can only do 1440p 120hz

    Xbox Series X doesn't support 1440p@120Hz with 1440p@144Hz monitor

    Until you don't proof me this specific monitor (Xiaomi Mi Curved 34) enables 1440p@120hz with Xbox Series X, your comment is meaningless.

    Yeah, there are some monitors with 1440p@120hz support for Xbox series s/x, that simply doesn't mean that ANY 1440p+ monitor with 120hz+ (especially 144hz+) can do it. Period.

    I've tried everything, that (1440p@120hz) simply doesn't work with that monitor. I've already listed every step I've tried, I'm not gonna write it again.

    Please read previous comments before posting the same dried comments...

    Xbox Series X. 1440p lies.

    Without display 1.4 support there is no reason to target 1440p at 120hz. Only screens are able to do this have 4k 120hz with HDMI2.1.
    Hi,

    Sorry you feel this way, but that is not true. There are compatibility issues with monitors and the Series X/S sure, but there are some monitors that can do 1440P 120Hz via HDMI 2.0 without issues.

    The Five listed here
    from Rtings.com can all support 120Hz @ 1440P over HDMI 2.0.

    I have also seen on here that the Samsung G7 can also do 1440P @120Hz effortlessly.

    Just because your monitor doesn't work doesn't Microsoft were lying.

    Also there is a lot more to the Series X than just a fast SSD. It has a GPU at least twice as fast as the Xbox One X and a CPU 3x faster. The Series X also has Raytracing.

    Does the series x support 1440p 144/155 refresh rate?

    The Xbox Series X will do 120Hz but no more, regardless of resolution or monitor.

    I would check to see if other Xbox Series X owners have confirmed to achieve 1440p120Hz on those monitors before purchasing.

    Maybe a google of "xbox series x 1440p 120hz ___________ " and insert the monitor model to see if people have posted about their monitor and Series X working.
