My Tv is displaying at 60hz instead of 120hz over HDMI

[Legolessed]

Hello, I have a Vizio vf550m and I have my computer hooked up to it via hdmi, and my pc says its only displaying at 60hz. I have heard that some tv's only do 120hz for non hdmi devices and such so i wanted to double check before going deeper or see if anyone else had had this issue before.

That's appears to only be a 60Hz TV from back in the day when they'd advertise "120Hz" but in reality they just used frame interpolation to "fake" 120Hz.

 

Its almost 12y/o.

These thing don't exist in the era where reaching 60fps (full hd) is a monumental feat.
