So i've been using this CMI-GM32-FQ 2K 2560x1440@165hz gaming monitor for maybe a year now, and i've ran it with no issues ever since. but upon booting up my pc for the first time in a couple days, the boot screen was stretch-res, and it appears i'm capped at 60hz. windows advanced display settings, highest hz is 60. nvidia control panel, highest is 60hz for 2560x1440 (native), and i am not using any ultra hd resolutions. i've tried using CRU and nvidia custom resolutions to force 165hz on 2560x1440, but it makes the screen real buggy, screen goes off resolution and aspect, it's still 60hz, and the weirdest issue being that the screen goes to a bright green buggy display. so my monitor currently can NOT run 165hz whatsoever...
my gpu is the GeForce RTX 3060, and an update came out just today so i updated it to see if it would fix the issue early upon booting up, but it didnt help. i even reinstalled the new driver update.
the monitor is connected to my gpu (not motherboard) by dp cable, and yes it's the one that came with the monitor.
all drivers are up to date.
the only other cable i have is an old bad hdmi one, which i know for a fact isn't as good as the dp cable im currently using.
i've tried plugging my monitor into the other gpu dp port, nothing changes.
V-sync and image scaling in nvidia control panel are off. "preferred refresh rate" is on highest available.
scaling mode is aspect ratio, and scaling is performed on display.
i've been using this monitor and gpu for over a year and both and worked just fine ever since. this is very sudden.
i haven't opened any games upon discovering this issue, and have been looking at countless forums, which have all dissapointed in relation to my issue.
also ive checked my monitor settings, theres no option to change resolution or refresh rate.
