Re: 144hz monitor @ 60hz? Help!

Wow! that's a lot of new info there, at least new to me :)

Get a DisplayPort cable to make 100% sure you're not running into weird pixel clock limitation issues. Also, it's almost 2017. Why the hell are you still using DVI cables? :-D The monitor's guide and all other sources told me to use DUAL LINK DVI to be able to get 144hz and they actualy included on...
