Hi all,

I recently brought a Benq XL2411T monitor but cannot seem to get it to display in anything above 60hz. Whenever I try to up the refresh rate to anything above 60hz it will have a grainy effect on my monitor.

I have a GTX 650 ti and am using the dual-link DVI cable that came with the monitor, I was wondering if anyone had a solution to this problem?

thanks a lot.
 
You could have a bad cable. You may want to make sure all the pins are straight, and not bent. The cable may not be completely pushed in either. It is also possible the GPU port is damaged or faulty. If you could try this on another system, that would be helpful.

You need to connect your monitor with a D-dvi cable instead of HDMI for the 120ghz & 144ghz.

Edit: sorry didnt read the full content on my mobile. So i just see he is using that cable.
