So i bought msi monitor that showed it has 2560x1440 resolution. When i opened it, it showed 1920x1080
Can anyone help me. Since HDMI doesn't support 144 hZ and i have 60hZ. Any help is good

have you tried unplugging the monitor from power source and then plugging back in? alternatively, i read on Linus that a similar issue was resolved by using a newer model display port cable. good luck.

Include monitor model.

See sections 5.3.1 & 5.3.2 https://forums.tomshardware.com/threads/how-to-connect-to-a-120-hz-display.3268285/

HDMI 2 ports of 18.0 Gbit/s bandwidth is able to handle 1440p 144Hz with a Premium High Speed HDMI Cable but doesn't mean Msi has enabled 144Hz over HDMI with your monitor. To allow HDMI over 60Hz is a manufacturer choice rather than a limitation. To determine if it can look through the manual. Also does your graphics card have HDMI 2 ports? list your pc specs.

Most likely you need a Displayport cable. What cables did the monitor come with?
