Hello,


I'm having problems with my 1440p 144 Hz Monitor (exact model link: https://www.amazon.com/SWIFT-PG278Q-27-inch-Gaming-Monitor/dp/B00MSOND8C)

Basically what happens is, I set the refresh rate through NVIDIA Control Panel to 144 Hz. Works fine, but once I stop using my computer for hours. If I fire up a game, The refresh rate locks to 24 Hz. I have to set the refresh rate to 60 Hz. Then put it back to 144 Hz for it to go back. Anyone having this problem? Tried googling but only came up with empty leads on why its doing that. (I'm using my native resolution 2560x1440p. I'm playing windowed borderless too.)

Thank you.
