Which cable do I need to support a 144Hz refresh rate?

To achieve 144Hz, you must use the correct version of DisplayPort (DP) or HDMI based on your resolution. DP is the recommended interface for high refresh rates.


Cable Requirement Table:

Target ResolutionRecommended Cable (or higher)Note
1080p (FHD)DisplayPort / HDMI 1.3Supported by most modern cables
1440p (2K)DisplayPort 1.2 / HDMI 2.0Common for high-end gaming setups
2160p (4K)DisplayPort 1.4 / HDMI 2.1HDMI 2.1 is required for uncompressed 4K@144Hz


Note:

  • Hardware Compatibility: In addition to the cable, both your GPU output and Monitor input ports must meet the required version specifications.

  • Pro Tip: If both are available, DisplayPort is generally preferred over HDMI for more stable high-refresh-rate performance.
