new monitor, also 60hz refresh rate, looks slower?

[Snarfthefierce]

So i bought a new monitor and it looks insanely slow, like 20 fps, wondering if somethings capping it?, playing tf2 with a gtx 760 and fx6300, so pretty sure its not that

monitors a benq rl 2455

Go to your Monitor Settings windows, where you can find the current refresh-rate settings. Make sure it is on 60Hz. New monitors sometimes come on low settings just for compatibility and need setting up. While your here adjust your brightness settings etc.

If it is already on 60Hz check your graphics card settings are on 60Hz.

Finally load up TF2, open up console commands in-game and type "cl_showfps 2" to see your current fps in game.

e.g. Monitor = 60Hz, Graphics card = 60Hz, TF2 = 75fps then your monitor is definitely running at 60fps.

Hope this helps

P.S. if this is a much better monitor than your old one the on-screen video does seem weird due to the increased clarity. Can take some getting used to.
