Hello everyone! My friend has an Acer laptop and now he wants to buy a new monitor. He found this VG270S in a good deal, but his GPU is a 1660 without a display port, only HDMI. Can he still gets 144hz with HDMI? I'm asking this because my monitor does not support that using HDMI, only with display port while my TV supports up to 120hz with the HDMI.
The monitor uses 2x HDMI 2.0 - same as his laptop!
 
Solution
Manual doesn't specifically stipulate input type for 144Hz, so can assume with confidence it supports 144Hz via Hdmi.

What laptop model does your friend have? Because it might have video capable usb c port which is equivalent to displayport. Just another option worth checking if it did have.
