I can't enable 144hz?

General Discussion

Does anyone else run RTX 2080 ti for 1440p Overwatch?

23

turns out as i found out, that my monitor doesn’t even support 144hz, despite looking for it under the keywords of 144hz monitor on amazon, probably just a screw up on my end

24

That’s a bummer, hope you’ll be able to return it.

25

Good luck with that. You’ll 100% get nasty frame drops in a team fight.

26

Amazon’s pretty good with returns. You can send it back and pay a bit more to get 144hz. Especially now with Boxing Day prices.

Yeah. You probably will.

I mean there is something about low end hardware and high end gaming that fascinates me, maybe there is something about trying to make it work, idk

28

And significant input lag lol.

The units I saw with OC’d panels were all on some Intel integrated chip, but i’m sure it could be done with others as well

Also i’d imagine better hardware in lappy monitors, but I couldn’t say for sure. Maybe something to do with power supply idk lol

Aight i looked a bit into it but only found stuff about when you have visible distortin, nothing about the OC capability. I think I looked at the wrong stuff here, ima go and see if I can get some other tutorials or somethin

Thanks for the input anyways my man ^^

The stats on your monitor:

Flat

Brand ASUS
Display Size 24"
Display Resolution 1920x1080
Refresh Rate 60Hz
Response Time 5ms

Based on the stats above, this isn’t a gaming monitor at all. The 5ms response time is the key in for that, add in the refresh rate, and it’s just a standard widescreen display.

I highly recommend the 27" 144hz monitor Asus puts out, it’s about $299, but worth every penny.

I have 1050 ti and its constant 153fps (Display based lock)

32

exact name of the product?

33

ASUS VG278Q
27” Full HD 1080p 144Hz 1ms DP HDMI DVI Eye Care Gaming Monitor with FreeSync/Adaptive Sync

34

I want a link and I want it now!

Scratch that, I got what i wanted

35

Glad I could help!

Use all that Christmas money for something epic :wink:

I use a 1050ti (not even overclocked yet), my cpu’s an older generation i5, and I get a solid average 183 frames on overwatch? I just don’t have a 144 hz monitor yet, planning to get one though.

Weird, I’m using a DVI cable and have 144Hz refresh rate.

Yeah, you need a DVI-D Dual Link cable in order to pull it off. (It’s the DVI cable that has lots more pins on it than the standard)

Look into the VG248QE OP.
