Set monitor Hz?

Moin zsm.

I have a question:

Can you change the Hzauch in the monitor settings, or only in the settings of the console or the PC?

I have a 165Hz monitor, but the refresh rate says 60Hz in the monitor settings.

Does he mean that he only outputs 60Hz or that the console (PS5) only outputs 60Hz?

So the monitor is factory set to its maximum Hz limit, only the settings of the PC etc. Are preventing it?

For Windows under display settings

Yes go setting, display and brightness then on your monitor, and in the properties and then you can switch there mostly from 60 to 100 to 120 144 and 165 if it goes further then also 240 and 360. You can do that too Change the graphics card driver

Hu

I think you don't understand my question.

You can usually set the Hz number under the image settings of the connected device, sometimes also in the monitor settings (although this is of no use if only 60Hz output is set on the PS5). The "Performance" mode and a suitable cable are also required.

Sl

The FS has a PS5;)

Hu

But I have a PS5 on the monitor and am now wondering whether it is enough to change the settings in the PS or whether I have to change something in the monitor settings.

Right click on desktop → display settings → advanced display settings

Moin - Entlich times someone who understands the question. With the Ps5 you can activate the performance mode - so you can play some games in-game with 120 FPS. I just asked myself whether that was enough or whether I still have to change something in the monitor settings in order to get the 120Hz.

So with my monitor it is like this: I can overclock the monitor from 144hz to 165hz. This setting must be made in the monitor.

However, I set the normal Hz in the Nvidia control panel. I can't adjust the Hz otherwise.

Sl

The monitor itself usually represents the maximum that is possible for it and that is set on the output device. Nevertheless, I would (if possible) set everything correctly directly on the monitor.

Pa

No, you normally don't have to change anything on the monitor. The resolution and the Hz number are on my monitor when I go to the monitor menu. The visible Hz number in the monitor menu changes when I change the Hz number on the PC (I think the console is the same).

So if this is already in your monitor menu somewhere, or you can't set the Hz, then it adapts automatically. Of course, your screen must also be able to reproduce a higher frequency.

EDIT: Read your question again. If your monitor shows 60Hz, the Hz number must be set again in the PS5 or on the monitor. If you are using an HDMI cable, you can't have more than 60hz. So you need a Displayport cable

Hu

I've been messing around in the menu of the monitor for some time now but can't find a setting for the Hz specification. Strangely, however, the refresh rate is 60Hz.

So just because the refresh rate on my screen is 60Hz does not mean that the monitor can't output 165Hz, but that the console can only output 60Hz right?

Pa

Edited my comment.

Hu

Maybe @Lubitorus is right and the refresh rate is only there in the monitor settings because the console can only output so much.

Hu

Unfortunately I have to correct you with an HDMI 2.1 cable you can now play 120Hz 4K.

Pa

I think the Ps5 doesn't have a display port cable connection. Then you must have a cable and a screen with HDMI 2.1.

Pi

The problem with the HDMI cable is so wrong HDMI 2.1 can theoretically up to 144hz.

Pa

Do you have a screen with HDMI 2.1 connection?

Pi

So just because the refresh rate on my screen is 60Hz does not mean that the monitor can't output 165Hz, but that the console can only output 60Hz right?

Yes that is correct where your PS5 can only have a maximum of 120hz anyway, so 144 or even 165hz are not possible anyway.

Hu

Have a 2.0 connection that could easily transmit 144 Hz and Full HD

Sl

This is very possible because the ps5 only outputs 120 Hz if necessary.

Pa

I'm afraid, I'll have to disappoint you. HDMI can only transmit more than 60hz from 2.1. Hdmi 2.0 is limited to 60hz.

Hu

I'm aware of that, but I still gladly take 120Hz in COD. I.e. When I play COD, the monitor settings should be 120Hz.

Hu

No. 4K 60FPS FullHD even 240FPS

Pa

You could maybe try an HDMI 2.1 to Displayport adapter… Displayport doesn't have a significant limitation on Hz.

Gr

Wow thanks for writing this conversation under my answer so that I'm spammed nicely ^^

Pa

No thing xD

Pa

So in my experience I never got more than 60hz with any HDMI connection… I know that it is sometimes possible, but not always. For me, Displayport has proven its worth.
