I recently got a new gaming monitor in which the hz would drop to levels of around ~70 at times while playing games. The monitor has G-Sync built in (not the compatible version) and my graphics card can be seen here. From searching online, it seems that everyone points to the idea that the...

I have a new 27” 144 hz monitor. I bought a DisplayPort cable for it but have misplaced it during the Christmas morning chaos. I have a DVI cable though so is it worth buying another DisplayPort cable or should I just go ahead and use the dvi? The gpu is a RTX2060 thanks

Hi all, I have an issue I just can’t work out which has actually been going on since late March 2020 but I’ve ignored until now with all the lockdown stress. I have a GTX 1060 6gb which I use to display on a triple monitor setup. Until end of March 2020, I had these connected up via...

Hello, I recently bought the Acer XB241H Predator. I'm noticing that for some reason, the refresh rate seem to dip to ~70 at times while a game will be running at a stable 130fps. It is currently connected with the stock DisplayPort cable that came with the monitor, with g-sync enabled. Is...

Hello. I recently just bought a new gaming Monitor 'ASUS VG248QG (24'' - 165Hz - 0.5 ms - G-Sync)', and I think it's pretty good. However, I'm actually not very well informed on this specific area, and I still bought it even though my laptop doesn't have a DisplayPort entry, only HDMI. So I...

Okay I might not have posted this in the right section but I'm new here (lol). Okay so my first question is why does my PC automatically use my HDMI output (TV) instead of my DisplayPort when I first boot it up? My TV is always off and my monitor auto-wakes up when I turn on my PC but it still...

I did not...

As the title says 2 of 3 DP ports in my 2080 Super stopped working. It happened seemingly out of nowhere. 1 DP and 1 HDMI port still work. Could this be anything else than a hardware error? Why did 2 stop working at the same time?

I have a notebook with a GeForce GTX 1660 Ti with only a HDMI port running on the integrated 120hz monitor and now I would like to buy a 24" monitor (Viewsonic Vx2458-c) that runs on 144hz. The question is if the monitor FreeSync spec would work through the HDMI cable or not. Thanks a lot!
