Hi there i have an Acer GN246HL Display.
I got it home today and plugged in HDMI , since this is all i have right now, and im aware i can only get 120hz refresh rate , however my pc wont pickup that its a 144hz monitor.
So firstly i tried seeing if windows would allow me to change the refresh rate in the properties and this wasnt successful.
My next step was trying to set a custom refresh rate in the AMD Radeon Settings , however i receive the message "The custom resolution settings are not compatible with this display. Reconfigure your settings and try again." I also found that i couldnt set custom resolutions using CRU (Custom Resolution Utility). Although this is irrelevant. I just cant find any light on the matter and im unsure if my panel is working at high refresh rates as i got a used monitor.
I am not familiar with this area and would appreciate some help with this! Thankyou in advance
