    Driver and/or display problem (AMD)

    Try this:

    • Right click on a blank area of your desktop and select "Display Properties"
    • Select "Advanced Display Settings"
    • Select "Display Adapter Properties"
    • Click on "List all Modes"
    • Select the preferred display mode. Something with at least 60Hz.
    • Then select your setting you want
    • See if the option came back

    I cant find the option to set 4k in display settings

    Hello, today I connected my 4k TV to my PC along with a 1080p monitor. Initially the TV showed 4k at 30hz. Since the TV was rated for 4k at 60Hz, I changed the connection to a display port 1.4 on my PC and it briefly started showing 4k at 60Hz until I started playing a game on the TV and changed the in game resolution to 1080p. Once I changed the in game resolution to 1080p, the TV went blank and then whole windows resolution was set to 1080p instead of 4k and I cant find the option to set 4k in display settings anymore. I even tried to find the resolution in the "List all modes" options in the display adapter settings but that shows up to 1080p. I have tried clearing the display cache using the method you described but it did not work. I tried to read the EDID and the EDID of the TV shows a max resolution of 4k but for some reason my PC is sending only 1080p at 60hz. I have also tried changing GPU drivers for my PC but that did not work. Tried uninstalling and disabling devices from device manager and that still did not work. Below are my PC, monitor and TV specs. Please help me set my TV to 4k at 60Hz. Thank you so much!

    PC:

    GPU - RTX 3080
    Mobo - Gigabyte Aorus Elite B550
    CPU - Ryzen 5 5600x

    Monitor:

    MSI optix G27c5 with 1080p @ 165Hz

    TV:

    VIZIO D55x-G1 4K @ 60Hz
