Question 60 hz monitor? HOw!?!?

60hz 4K monitor.


Hey guys. Bought a new strix 2060 GPU.

Set it all up with a u28h750uqe monitor 60hz 4K.

I’ve tried to get my monitor to run at full resolution but i can’t seem to get it to run at 60 hz. It only runs at 30.. when I drop it down to 1080, it runs at 60 though. I have a 4K 2.0 HDMI cable. But I’m not entirely certain if everything is right.

Anyone have any thoughts? Cheers!

you need display port cable i think

The hdmi ports on that monitor are hdmi 2.0b. That means they are capable of 4k @ 60Hz.

The hdmi ports on the asus rtx2060 strix are 2.0b.
That means they are capable of 4k @ 60Hz.

Which leaves the cable. There's 2x kinds of hdmi cable, the older, standard model and high speed model. For 4k at 24/30Hz a standard will work. For full 60Hz, you'll need a high-speed cable.

Hdmi relies on a 'handshake' when connecting, so you could try a re-negotiation, which means turn on pc, pull the hdmi out of the monitor with pc still on, then plug back in.

Or just use the DisplayPort.

Top lad. That’s what I needed to know, I’ve never built a computer before so all this is quite new. Thanks mate!
