A quick google search determined that Displayport 1.2 is聽limited to 144Hz @ 1440p, which honestly isn't a big change from 165 or 180. It can do 240 at 1080

This precisely answer the question so thank you for this 馃檪

Hi! As the title suggests, can my old but gold 970 support 1440p at 165hz and 180hz? Not talking bout gaming fps, just the native refresh rate. Thanks in advance!

It will work with that monitor but you probably won't see 180fps in anything from the last 4-5 years.

Depends, probably not on HDMI but on DP it will likely work.

I'll try and dwell upon which version of DP is included with the card. Thank you for the info!
