Xbox Series X says my tv doesn't support 4K 120FPS

Ksawery Libucki · Jan 6, 2021

Hi, I have a SONY XH9096 TV and an Xbox Series X, when I want to select 4K UHD and 120hz refresh rate in xbox settings it tells me that my tv doesn't support that and that I can only choose 4K 60hz or 1080p 120hz. The console is plugged into one of the
HDMI 2.1 ports using an HDMI cable that was provided with the Xbox.

To a degree you don't need a tv that supports HDMI 2.1 to play supported games 120 FPS.

I bought a 4k/HDR LG tv about three years ago and it's HMDI 2.0 but it doesn't support 120FPS at 4k but if I went into the settings of my Xbox Series S and X and changed the resolution from 4k to 1080p I can then set FPS to 120 as my consoles tell me I can play 120 FPS games at 1080p.

According to Sony's website the TV will support 120hz with 4K in a future firmware update. Here is the link if you need it.

HDMI 2.0 only supports 1440p60 or 1080p120.
If you want a higher resolution with 120fps, you'll need a HDMI 2.1 cable.

Your Series S also supports 4k with up to 120fps, just like the Series X.

You can find more info here Set up 4K gaming at 120 Hz on Xbox Series X | Xbox Support when you expand the "Enable 120 Hz without 4K" Tab.
