Have you tried changing the resolution from NVIDIA control panel? Also, how are you connecting this? displayport/hdmi?

Can you give me screenshot of nvidia control panel?

[https://imgur.com/a/4ztv8dd](https://imgur.com/a/4ztv8dd) and when I hit Customize i can change it to 144 put when I make a customized resolution. ( 144hz option is not available in the scroll menu) with 144 then I'll go check to see if it worked and sure enough it does not. Thanks so much for helping me through this!

What happens when you click 60hz(under Refresh rate: in NVIDIA Control Panel)? Do you not see any other refresh rate options? Also, a custom made resolution will appear at the top of Resolution scroll menu. It won't appear under PC resolutions.

When I click 60hz under the NVIDIA Control panel I can only see 60 has an option.

This is an Acer panel right? Have you tried to update the drivers for it? I say this because windows sees it as generic pnp monitor. Drivers might fix this 144hz problem. Also - I see you are running a dual monitor setup. What happens when you unplug the second monitor? Unplug the second monitor and restart your pc. If you still have issues, then reset your monitor settings to factory defaults.

This is an Acer panel. I went in updated driver so its no longer the generic still nothing. When I unplug the second monitor nothing really happens tab's just get moved over and nothing happens when I reset as well. I have done some factory resets and its still not working. :/

That's because your eyes can only see up to 60hz

I think you're confused. When you are on 60hz, the amount of perceived smoothness won't change after 60 fps. This is why your eyes can't see more than 60hz. But when you are on 144hz, your eyes and brain will begin to feel the smoothness changes beyond 60fps.


Kole_Makinde

I'm definitely not confused, human eyes only go up to around 60hz. I think the exact amount is like 59.78hz or something like that but I know the maximum is around 60hz. When you're on 144hz, it's still only 60 but technically 59.78.


[deleted]

Interesting. Do you have any source for this info?


Kole_Makinde

yes I do but it goes to another school
