I am looking at purchasing a new monitor after just moving over to PC - I am stuck between the Acer Predator 1440p IPS 165hz and the ASUS StriX 1440p IPS 170hz.
I am leaning more towards the ASUS - (I am also running a StriX 2080TI)
My question is - both monitors seem to have a DP 1.2 and HDMi 2.0
From what I have read the DP 1.2 only allows 144hz and same with the HDMi 2.0... so what cable am I needing to use the full 170hz on the ASUS monitor - (or am I thinking to deep because the monitors are 144hz but overclocked to 165/170hz respectively)
or is the overclocking a sham with them as they dont have the required ports?
Will a 144hz DP cable or 2.0 premium HDMi that state 144hz at 1440p work at 1440p on 165/170hz?
If not what cable is needed?
What DP/HDMi port is on the StriX 2080TI?
Help
