My PC doesn't allow me to change resolution and refresh rate

[ancabung]

When i go into the screen resolution from windows or through the nvidia control, i set to another resolution or even the refresh rate from 60hz to 144hz, it DOESN'T CHANGE and immediately REVERT back to the default one.

What I've tried: -Restart computer
-Reinstall driver for both monitor and graphic cards
-I've even tried another monitor but the problem is still there

Is it because of my pc or my monitor? What should i do?

what GPU and monitor are you using and what type of display cable are you using?

I use GTX 1060 3gb and the monitor is: AOC G2460PQU, I've also tried to plugged the DVI-D and DisplayPort but it still does not working

When you reinstalled Nvidia drivers, did you use DDU to perform a clean driver installation? If not, some parts of the old drivers may still be messing with you.

does it let you change the refresh rate in widows display settings?

No it doesn't. I mean it allow me to change to 144hz but it revert back to 60hz afterward

hmmm after a bit of searching, it appears earlier versions of this model monitor had an issue using 144hz over displayport and DVI-D was ok

so dvi-d on its own has the same issue?

you said you tried another monitor, what model was it?

are the cables correctly rated for 144hz and it's definitely a dual link cable, not single?

as per weberdarren97's suggestion, also do a DDU wipe and re-install

Yes, I've check the cable and nothing's wrong about it, and yeah it's a dual link cable. Another monitor I've tried is a Dell E2015HV, this one is not a 144hz one but i've tried to change the resolution but the result is still the same, it revert back to the recommended resolution which is 1600 x 900 even if i want to select any other resolutions. Which led me wondering if there's something wrong about my computer. I'll try doing the DDU wipe and replied as soon as possible.

P/S: yea my English is bad, hopefully u understand the issue i'm facing

Hello, after doing the DDU wipe and some test with both monitor, its working perfectly but only on DVI_D cable, I guess I have to accept the fact that DisplayPort is somehow broken. Thanks you all tho!
