I feel like I'm going crazy but my new AOC g2460pqu is not looking like 144hz at all, not even 120hz for that matter, it just looks like 60hz.

I've tried 3 different dual link DVI d cables and a brand new display port cable, none of them change anything, monitor settings and GeForce panel say the monitor is 144hz, but its so obviously not, it looks identical to 60hz.

I can change from 50hz to 60hz and see a massive difference but 0 difference between 60 and 144 or 120 or 75 or 100, it simply wont go over 60.

Even tried http://www.testufo.com/#test=frameskipping and frames are being skipped so it is 100% not running at 144hz.

If anyone has any suggestions outside of RMA'ing the monitor i'd love to hear, ive found a few others also complaining about this stupid thing, I dont understand how they can sell this product and claim its 144hz.

Gtx 960 i7 3770k 1920x1080p, I ended up returning the monitor after verifying it was not 144hz with the testufo test, replacing it with the ASUS VG248qe to see if I was crazy or if it was really not 144hz, wel see I guess.

Update: I ended up returning the AOC monitor and replaced it with the ASUS VG248qe.

Immediately upon plugging in the ASUS and switching the hz to 144 I could instantly see the difference, massive just the mouse alone moved so silky and smooth.

I don't know if my AoC was faulty or if they are just straight false advertising but I'm going to stay away from them for a while after that experience, ruined my Christmas honestly.
