    144hz monitor not showing 144 hertz
    « on: June 20, 2018, 09:04:10 AM »
    Hey everyone. Yesterday I bought the ASUS VG248QE 144hz Monitor. After connecting all the cables i realised, that the refresh rate is still 60 hertz.

    Is that normal? How do i change that??

    It may be because you do not have the correct drivers installed for the monitor, be sure to check the manufacturer's website for drivers for this monitor!

      Have you changed it to 144Hz on the display adpater properties?

      If the display drivers are controlled through Windows then you can find the setting here:

      Settings > System > Display > Display Adapter Properties > Monitor and then under Screen Refresh Rate change it to 144hz.

      If controlled through nVidia or Radeon you'll need to Google something like "Change refresh rate in [insert display settings UI program name here]".
