Hi All,

I just bought samsung s27a950d, my problem is that Im unable to configure my display fps or refresh rate to 120hz. I only see 60hz. Im using 9800gt as my graphic card, I already update it to its latest drivers and firmwares but still the same problem. Im using the cable DVI-Dual link which comes with the packages. anyone with the same problem encountered? please advice and thanks in advanced.

If you are sure it can support 120Hz, and you have the latest nvidia drivers, I would try to install drivers for the monitor you are using and make sure the monitor supports 120Hz. Also try doing this from the nvidia control pannel and not the windows monitor resolution screen.

I think it really depends on your monitor resolution. That card was probably one of the first cards to even support it if it even can. lol so get something newer if you really want 120Hz or 3D.

Hi,

I was planning to purchase 670gtx.. you think that will do? :) not so much fan of 3D, just the 120hz in gaming..

On DVI you get 60 or 120 i dont remember i didnt use DVI cable

BUT

on HDMI cable max is 60 mhz

ON DISPLAYPORT cable finally you get 120mhz but im not sure yet if it is 3D also :D
