Hi,

Does anyone have this model, just got it, using the DP cable intona gtx 970. Playimg around with the menus i dont seem to be able to select the resolution and refresh rate option, it just skips past it. Help!!

I don’t want to be the bearer of bad news (and I hope I’m wrong) but I’m fairly sure the 970 isn’t capable of 3440x1440 @144hz. That is probably why you aren’t getting the option to run it.

The GTX 970 supports Displayport 1.2; you need Displayport 1.3 or 1.4 for 3440x1440 @ 144 Hz.

Update, i installed the recent gpu drivers and nvidia control panel allowed me to select 144hz! Went on a google searched hz checker and it said i was running 144.

I do plan to upgrade the gpu...ya know when its actually possible

Wow. Great news. You may be overclocking the Displayport, or your card may be a later model that supports DP 1.3+

I was having the same problem with the 780gtx. I know it’s been older but that does only support 100hz at that resolution.
