How to get 144(120)Hz on Surround?

Post by Hiikeri »

I can use those Hz on my screens (Benq XL2411T + 2x AOC 2460) if they are separated, cables: DVI-D + 2x DP, so no adapters.

I use monitors nicely with Amd 290X, but now i have GTX980 and cant get them working on surround @100/120/144Hz.

On surround i can only choose 60Hz. :thumbdown:

CRU wont help, and also cant change refresh rate on nVidia control panel > "Create Custom Resolution", its grayed out when Surround (5760x1080) is on.

Several hours googling and trying, nothing seems to help. :x

If it doesn't work there's probably a problem.
There could be a problem with different sync polarity, but do keep in mind I'm not a pro when it comes to how sync polarity works.
There's guides around the net to try and trick sync polarity. (If it is sync polarity causing you to not be able to use 144hz)

I read some sites that nVidia has dropped 144Hz/Surround support about 1 year ago from drivers (some problem on architecture?).

Some setups 120Hz works just fine, but on my setup cant do even that. :thumbdown:

I read also that DVI-D + DPs setup can be a problem on nVidia Surround, some DVI-D monitors works fine and anothers just wont work correctly. I mean 120/144Hz Surround setup.

I think i buy another DP/144Hz display, after that all my monitors are DP connected (i have GTX980 with 3 DP connections) and problem should be "last winter snow".

I'm running Surround 144Hz on 3x Asus Rog Swifts via DisplayPort. Everything seems to be working fine.

I buyed a week ago AOC G2460PG G-Sync monitor to center, and 144Hz Surround works instantly. Now all my 3x24" monitors are DP-connected.

My earlier center, Benq XL2411T is now sold to next user.

What drivers are you using? I have the same monitors but only see an option for 120hz

I also think it's due to a different sync polarity
