Hello.
While ago i just got my 144hz monitor which is called - AOC G2460PF. For some reason it shows only 60hz on fullhd 1920x1080 resolution. But when i do open CS:GO with an launch options it allows me to use 120hz on 1024x768 resoltion while i'm ingame. I have been looking foward for many tutorials but i found only one which allows me get that 120hz only in-game. I'm using HDMI Adapter which is plugged in video card.
I'm just starting get scared that AOC company might be cheating on people by writin that monitor is ''FREESYNC 144hz'' ? I need really good answer which can help me to fix my problem ;) .

Solution
First - FreeSync works only with AMD cards, and you have NVidia card, so no fun for you.
Second - to reach 144 Hz refresh rate, you need to use either Dual link DVI cable or DisplayPort cable, HDMI won't work here.
