Refresh rate problem

Post by _Roxeept_ »

I have a Full HD 165Hz monitor, I set the resolution to 1920x1080 165Hz in the “game settings”. But the game in full screen mode does not work more than 60Hz. How to fix it?

What are the manufacturers and model numbers of your monitor and video card? Also, what type of cable are you using to connect to the monitor, HDMI or Display Port?

It's been a long time since I've set this up, but the game runs fine on my 144hz monitor at 1440p. From memory you need to:

1. In the NVIDIA Control Panel, in Display-Change Resolution, make sure it is also set to 165hz.
2. In the NVIDIA Control Panel, in Manage 3D settings, create a profile for theHunter and make sure Vertical Sync is set to "Use the 3D application setting"
3. Vertical Sync off in the game setting.
4. For FreeSync/Gsync to work I think you have to use a DisplayPort cable.

Oh, and if I recall, the game needs to be running in real full screen mode, NOT full screen windowed mode.

Maybe you know how to run an application in windowed mode in full screen without a taskbar? I have 165 Hz in windowed mode

I FIX, i FIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIX YEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEH
I just set the "preferred refresh rate" to "output available" and everything works. I don’t understand how I didn’t notice this parameter before.

Glad you found the setting.

For full screen (non-windowed) mode, there is a checkbox at the very top in the Game Settings. Also if you're in a game you can switch back and forth between Full Screen and Windowed mode by pressing <ALT><Enter>. Full Screen has no Task Bar or window frame. But I just checked and my game runs 144hz+ in both Full Screen and Full Screen Windowed mode, so I was wrong above. I'm not sure why, but sometimes I have to press <ALT><Enter> a couple times before the game switches mode.
