Hello,
I recently moved my pc to a different place and since then my monitor resolution is stuck to 1440x900@60hz resolution and I cant set it higher. I have NVIDIA GTX 1060 graphics card and my monitor is asus VG248 which has a max resolution of 1920x1080@144hz and im connecting my monitor and my pc with displayport cable. I tried many things:
1. Changing resolution through display settings:
- I cant, max I can choose is 1440x900 and refresh rate 60hz.
2. Trying a different displayport cable:
- Same result, no difference
3. Trying a HDMI cable:
- This actually works, I can select 1920 x 1080 resolution however I cant pick higher refresh rate than 60hz which is what I would like
4. Uninstalling/reinstalling display driver through device manager:
- Same result, no difference
5. Trying custom resolution through NVIDIA control panel:
- Someone suggested I should try setting up a custom resolution through the control panel. I did it but the issue remained, there was no difference.
6. Installing newest graphics drivers through NVIDIA control panel:
- After I did this, monitor went completely black. Rebooting PC didnt fix it either, so I had to plug my monitor in with HDMI cable and roll back the driver so it could work with displayport cable again
7. I tried a different monitor:
- I borrowed my friends 2560x1440@144hz monitor and I plugged it in with displayport driver and it works fine.
So currently I dont know what else to try. Based on what I explained what could an issue be and how to fix it?
