  1. MSI GE76 Raider detecting 144hz at startup, flashes, than changes to 60hz


    Ever since I updated my new laptop from factory settings, I have been seeing a slight dip in performance. Whenever I boot up my laptop from shut down, it will boot up in 144hz, flicker, and than proceed to stay at 60hz. Every time I would have to manually set it back to 144hz. Not only that but games like Psychonauts 2 will launch very strange and I won't be able to get past the title screen. It was running fine before I installed any update. Any ideas on what could be happening and how would I be able to fix this.

    :)

    My 144hz monitor is stuck at 60hz.

    I have a BenQ XL2430T 1080p 144hz monitor but it's stuck at 60hz. I have an RTX 2060 and I'm using an HDMI 2.0 cable. Windows and Nvidia control panels only say 60hz, and there is no option to change the refresh rate in the monitor settings.

    My 144hz monitor is stuck at 60hz.

    For https://diamondlobby.com/tech-guides/why-is-my-...

    I have:

    Checked the windows settings, says 60hz there.

    Check if I'm using a cable for 144hz, yes I am, HDMI 2.0.

    Checked if I had outdated drivers, and updated them all, but nothing changed.

    Checked if I plugged it into the wrong port, no, I plugged it into the GPU HDMI port.

    For https://www.reddit.com/r/Monitors/comments/k3iv...

    I have:

    Tried a different cable, but nothing changed.

    Tried an Nvidia Custom Resolution, doesn't save.

    I have a cable that supports 144hz.
    I've tried unplugging and replugging the cable, but did nothing

    For https://www.reddit.com/r/Monitors/comments/s0gg..
    I
    have:

    Tried using another HDMI port, but only have one.

    I've tried changing it in both windows and Nvidia settings, but both say 60hz.

    For https://forums.tomshardware.com/threads/144hz-m...

    I have:

    Turned "VSYNC" off and "Preferred refresh rate" to "Highest Available," still stuck at 60hz.

    For https://forums.tomshardware.com/threads/144hz-m...

    I have:

    Tried nothing, since it's talking about someone's monitor who isn't capped to 60hz, just thought it was capped when using a UFOtest, which is unreliable. It was set to 144hz.

    And for https://forums.tomshardware.com/threads/stuck-a...
    I
    have:

    Tried lowering the resolution, I lowered it to 720p and got an option for 120hz, but I want to be able to use my full 1080p@144hz.

    Though, I am planning on attempting to use CRU, though I'm still thinking about it since I read that it could cause some screen bugs and shorten the life span of the monitor.
