Windows 10 Home 64bit Intel i5 4670K @ 3.40GHz 16GB DDR 9-9-9-24 Corsair Vengence MSI Z87-G45 motherboard Nvidia GTX 970 is running with 376.33 drivers on an ASUS ROG PG278Q 1440p 144Hz monitor. When launching a game, it caps performance at 24Hz despite the setting in the Nvidia Control Panel. There are two solutions: either lower the refresh rate to something below 144Hz and reapply the settings, or switch between fullscreen and non-fullscreen mode when starting a game. This small problem is enough to annoy me enough to curse it each time I power on. Anyone know what’s causing this or how to resolve it? I’ve already reinstalled drivers and used a clean install, but it still doesn’t work.
It's a more cinematic style here. Just let me know what kind of cable you're using and how you confirm it runs at 24Hz.
Check if your display runs at 144hz in the PC settings. Right-click the desktop, go to Display settings, advanced display settings, then display adapter properties and finally monitor. 2. The same monitor displays what you see when you press the "turbo" button on Windows. 3. In the Nvidia control panel, it’s set to 144hz or the highest available; there isn’t a per-hertz setting. Also verify the game is configured for the highest available frame rate in that panel. 4. Are you playing just one game or multiple games?
Displayport settings indicate the frame rate stays at 24 unless you close or pause the game. If you tab out or lose focus, it recovers to 144Hz. 1. Yes. 2. 144Hz. 3. Under resolution, next to it is Refresh rate: set to 144Hz. 4. All games. As discussed before, when running Windowed Bordeless and opening another window, it returns up to a maximum of 144 fps.
It was Nvidia's terrible performance. I believed they would resolve it by then. Fine.
I used it before too. Now I install it occasionally to check if my issues are resolved, but no.
