Go to solution Solved by Crunken,

go into your steam library, right click it and go into launch options and enter "-refresh 240 +fps_max 0" (without the quotations ofc) this will remove any fps lock you might have and put the game to 240hz

So recently I bought a monitor "Acer XF250Q".

As the topic suggests, i can't get the 240hz in CSGO, tho i get 240hz in all other games and the dekstop aswell.

Somehow csgo caps my refresh rate @ 120hz 

Any solutions? 

 

I tested so far 240hz on dekstop/COD BO4/fortnite and other games.

 

PC SPECS

* BoostBoxx Vega, GlassCase RGB
* MSI Z270-A PRO / Onboard 7.1 Controller ALC892
* Intel i7-7700K / Windows 10 Home (64bit)
* Ballistix Sports 2400MHz 16GB / M.2 SSD 850 Evo 250GB / 2TB HDD WD®
* MSI GeForce GTX 1080 Armor 8G OC

 

Cable i use to run my monitor is Displayport cable. I had to order new cable,since the original one was too short and would not reach to my monitor.

disable vsync? or just limit it in the console with the fps_max command

I spent $2500 on building my PC and all i do with it is play no games atm & watch anime at 1080p(finally) watch YT and write essays...  nothing, it just sits there collecting dust...

Builds:

The Toaster Project! Northern Bee!

 

The original LAN PC build log! (Old, dead and replaced by The Toaster Project & 5.0)

I always have vsync off and the fps_max is always on 300 capped or 0 as unlimited.

I already got that fixed,thankyou for the fast respond tho.
