Can this MSI motherboard do 144hz at 1080p?

EDIT: I immediately realized that this doesn't matter. Because you plug the monitor into the GPU...First time builder, heh.

I want to use this MOBO with a 144hz DVI port monitor at 1080p. How can I tell if this MOBO can output that? Here's the specifications for the motherboard. Here's under details:

"1 x DVI-D port, supports a maximum resolution of 1920x1200@60Hz"

How can I tell if this supports 1920x1080@144hz?

Thanks.

Sadly, no, the motherboard cannot. You need AT LEAST a DVI-D Dual Link port OR a DisplayPort OR an HDMI v1.3 above AND a motherboard that can support it at 144Hz AND appropriate cables.

Personally, I don't know of any motherboards with iGPUs that can support more than 60Hz. You generally need to connect your monitor to a dedicated GPU for that purpose.
