The reason I ask is because I have a similar setup with one of my system. An Acer monitor and a TV. Never had the issue you've discussed here.

Same here. I actually prefer 16:10 displays.

I'll plug back in the TV and see what happens I'll get back to you

I found the bug with the monitor and tv it's a windows bug if they are set to duplicate the monitor refresh rate is 60hrz and the tv is 30hrz it's the difference in refresh rate and you can't change it but I found if you set them to extend then you can change the refresh rate to match and it fixed the problem

My monitor is 165 and the TV is 4k/60 and they behave perfectly well. I have it set to extend, not duplicate though

can you set it to duplicate to test it to confirm maybe it's just my tv its a Vizio m558-g1

set tv to duplicate my monitor? yes give me 5 mins.

Edit- just tried it, was fine. I tried a game and it set the monitor to match the TV 60hz otherwise was fine.

That makes sense - duplicate *must* have matched refresh rates, and always has

That's cool! Glad you got it sorted out! That's how I have all of mine configured.

With duplicate yes. With "Extend" displays can have different refresh rates.

Yes mine does, extend, 165 monitor 60 tv, duplicate, windows sets them both on 60, which i guess is to the lowest?

yep it was fine because they matched if they didn't match then you would have the same problem as I did thanks for testing for me

It was windows that set them to match, on extend they both keep their native refresh rates.

I finally got my notice for free win11 and gave it a shot. It seems ok for now, biggest positive for me so far is that they reigned in the obnoxious notification noises which really annoyed me in 10. I'm still getting used to the stupid UI changes like those icons, will probably look into the UI tweaks etc.

Rock N Roll Rebel · Jan 27, 2022

I did some research on my TV and it is advertised as 120hrz refresh rate but in windows on extend it only goes up to 60hrz and in duplicate it has only 30hrz ether windows has a problem or Visio is false advertising their product

Dual GPU? I've had fun in the past when a driver only updated one of the GPU's

(This is why i use macrium reflect and 128GB OS partitions, so i can roll the OS back fast and try things like this)

Shit that should be another tip type thing everyone knows, I hadn't thought or heard such a plan but I'm tempted to clean wipe my stuff and sort that out right now.

Worse thing is Timeline gone, I only realised it's greatness a month ago, gits, ah well might be back in 12.

120hz native or some kind of motion res?

Cause I've seen that marketing where it isn't truly 120hz. I've seen them advertise as 240hz.

Deleted member 24505 · Jan 27, 2022

Does seem to be 120hz, ours is only 60hz but is good enough

What model is it? Most are fake high res though...

it's Vizio m558-g1 and I read a review and it said that the refresh rate they advertise is false it's not 120hz it's 60hz so the reviewer confirmed my suspicions

You can manually set them independently.

Yeap, fake 120hz aka frame insertion in post processing. A quick rule of thumb is you need hdmi 2.1 to do true 4K120...

On topic, ya know regarding my win 11 upgrade, I partially went for it just to have my MB tied to the key ( thinking future clean install). But the upgrade was rather seamless for a windows upgrade. That in itself was kind of surprising though I'll still do a wipe and reinstall at some point.

yep i looked up the spec on hdmi and it's only 2.0a

120Hz panel, 60Hz inputs
The 120Hz is for digital TV tuner inputs, they multiply the input source

Quite often you can overclock TV's like that and run 1080p 100Hz or 120Hz

Deleted member 24505 · Jan 28, 2022

Our TV is 60hz in duplicate or extend, a pretty cheap 58" 4k TV.

Rock N Roll Rebel · Jan 28, 2022

i wish I can find a way to get the TV from 30hz to 60hz in a duplicate setting but there is only 30hz setting nothing else

mama · Jan 28, 2022

Okay, now that the upgrade is formally available to me on an update, hopefully a simple question. Should I stay with Windows 10 or is it worth the upgrade?

it's worth the upgrade it's more secure than 10 you can go into settings and set internet encryption so everything that goes out of your computer is encrypted and you can set core isolation to

I like it a lot. The nice thing is that you can try it out and if you don't like it, you can roll back the update.
