AOC G2460FQ has bad frame skipping at anything higher than 60hz

Hello,

I recently bought this monitor from OCuk, I noticed when I first started using it that it did not feel any smoother than my only monitor when in 144hz (Old one was 60hz). So I did the test on this site http://www.testufo.com/#test=frameskipping and found to be having massive frame skipping issues at 120hz and 144hz. This is how I set it up:

Used the Display Port cable that came with the monitor
then changed the monitor to 144hz in the resolution/properties. The screen recons it is in 144hz but gets lots and lots of skipping.
So I then changed it down to 60hz and it had no skipping at all.

I have defiantly set it up correctly right? do you thing the monitor is faulty?

For reference here is the screen passing at the highest refresh rate it can: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-YGLpf8Fni8

And here is the screen failing at 144Hz:

Get a new DP cable and try it with that, it's been reported that sometimes the cable provided isn't working as it should.

Is there an option to change the DP mode on the monitor?

Its on the correct settings, I've tried everything possible to get it working correctly at 144hz but just been getting constant frame skip, you can tell it is not outputting 144hz properly even without running that test.

I also tried with the DVI cable that they supplied

I've now spent most my night fiddling with settings, reinstalling the drivers and even got a mate to come and bring his 144Hz monitor around to test, the difference was like night and day. OCuk want me to send them the monitor for testing before they will do anything, getting beyond a joke now.
