144hz option missing

Post by r3lik »

Hello everyone,

I'm new to the forums (have been lurking for a while), but I haven't been able to find an answer to my problem. I've never been able to use 144hz with nvidia surround. I have 3x Asus PG279Q gsync monitors, and the maximum refresh rate I get is 120hz when in Surround.
I've tried a multitude of different drivers.

Has anyone seen this before? Is there a solution?

Thanks much,

Did you try resetting each monitor's settings to factory defaults ? OC in particular is likely to cause problems if it's not the same across the board. I don't have ROG Swifts but I'm happily using Acer G-Sync monitors at 144Hz in Surround.

Thanks for you response. I believe they are the same, but I can try. I haven't overclocked any of the monitors, however. They work at 144hz in standalone mode, but only let me do 120hz in surround.

Are all monitors connected to the same card ? Do you get the same issue when SLI is disabled ?

Same card. Haven't tried with SLI disabled.

it works fine with SLI disabled. The only time I don't get the 144hz option is when running in Surround.

Hello r3lik - I have the same monitors (for my surround). Just to confirm - your using option 2 based upon this link? Suggesting the center monitor attached to the green circle (upper left of the image) and your left and right monitors to the same card - orange circles.

Just confirming you also have the 144Hz refresh selected under nVidia Control Panel options here?
