LG 27GX790A-B stuck at 10 Gbps/lane with RTX 5060 Ti - should it be 13.5?

High Hz on OLED produce excellent strobeless motion blur reduction with fast GtG pixel response. It is easier to tell apart 60Hz vs 120Hz vs 240Hz on OLED than LCD, and more visible to mainstream. Includes WOLED and QD-OLED displays.

LG 27GX790A-B stuck at 10 Gbps/lane with RTX 5060 Ti - should it be 13.5?

Post by Shade7 » Yesterday, 15:09

I’m having a weird issue with my LG 27GX790A-B and RTX 5060 Ti and wanted to see if anyone here has run into the same thing.

GPU-Z is showing:
Current Link Rate: 10.0 Gbps
Max Link Rate: 10.0 Gbps
Lane Count: 4

So it looks like the monitor is only running at UHBR10 / 40 Gbps instead of UHBR13.5 / 54 Gbps.

I’m running 2560x1440 at 480 Hz, 8-bit RGB. G-SYNC is off, Windows HDR is off, and DAS is on.

Right now I’m using a 6.6 ft IVANKY DP80 cable that is supposedly VESA certified:

I also ordered a shorter 3.3 ft Silkland DP80 cable that should arrive later today:

I’ve updated to the latest NVIDIA driver, checked MSI’s support page and don’t see any VBIOS/firmware update for the card, and the GPU otherwise seems to be working normally.

I also ordered the USB-A to USB-B cable for the monitor so I can check LG Switch for any monitor firmware updates.

Is this a known issue with this monitor and RTX 50-series cards, or does it sound like something specific to my setup?

If anyone has this monitor with a 50-series GPU, what link rate does GPU-Z show for you? And if you were stuck at 10.0 Gbps, was there anything that fixed it?

I'm hoping to run the monitor without needing DSC.

It requires a registry edit.

to fix uhbr on nvidia gpus
Really? That's it?

I'll try that as soon as I get home.

What is the highest 4:3 resolution you think I could use at 480Hz without triggering DSC?
