Hello,
so I'm running dual monitor setup. I have one 240hz monitor, and the other one 144hz BenQ 2720Z. Just replaced Gigabyte 1060 3GB WindForce with Gigabyte 1080 AORUS, and 240hz on my first monitor works fine through HDMI, but I cannot get more than 60HZ on my benq, even though it worked fine on my previous GPU using same cable. I haven't uninstalled drivers before putting new card in since they come from same series, but I updated the drivers after I had found out that I cannot get more than 60hz. Does anyone know how to fix it? I don't think that replacing Dual DVI cable with DP will fix the problem, because I've bought that monitor in 2015. To the best of my knowledge, my bios on the monitor is too old for it to get 144hz through DP.

Thanks.
