[SOLVED] Can't get 144Hz on Acer GN246HL ?

Hi, I currently use a Acer GN246HL as my monitor. My old PC had a 1080 which used Dual link DVI to run 1080p at 144hz.

I have recently purchased a new tower and now have a GTX 3060 TI. The card has a HDMI and 3 Displayport ports.

I purchased a new HDMI 2.1 cable thinking it would allow me to select 144hz on my PC but still won't allow me to. Only 60hz still appears.

What cable combination would allow me to achieve 1080p at 144hz ? Or would it be better to purchase a better monitor with a bit bigger screen. If yes what connection would I need for 144hz?

Sorry I get confused alot with this kind of stuff. Any help anyone could give would be greatly appreciated.
