Connectivity options include DisplayPort 1.2, two HDMI 2.0 ports (limited to 144Hz) and a headphone jack.

Note that DisplayPort 1.2 only supports 10-bit color depth up to 120Hz, but with chroma subsampling or 8-bit depth, you can go up to 165Hz. Given that the difference between 8-bit and 10-bit color with SDR content is really not noticeable, this is not an issue and you should just set the monitor to 2560×1440 165Hz with 8-bit color depth.

 

So i realised my monitor MSI Optix G273QF should suppot 10bit color but i checked and its using 8bit for now, i checked nvidia control panel but there is no option for 10bit color, am i doing something wrong? im using a display port cable for this monitor btw.
