How to make DOOM run 144Hz?

[BlaKe]

Hi,

Cant find a setting for the refresh rate, it just goes to 60Hz. How can i change this?

However, in the menu screens, regardless of setting, I get 60 fps... so perhaps you're only looking at the framerate on the menu screens?

Yeah, I noticed the same thing re: the menus. Once, for whatever reason, the loading screen was locked at 144 while I was restarting a checkpoint. Usually it's 60 in menus, then works like it should in-game.

Maybe they limited the fps in the menus to prevent the game from going to insane framerates for people who have vsync turned off. Hitman does that for me - if vsync is off and I leave it on a menu for 10 minutes, it'll sit there rendering the static screen at 300+ fps and my GPU gets up to 90c.

HERE IS THE FIX!!
Go to your "WINDOWS" graphics display options (NOT NVIDIA or AMD's).

"Right" click on your desktop.
Choose "Display Settings"
At the bottom of the display settings click on "Display Adapter Properties"
Choose the top Tab "Monitor"
(Even if this says you are at 144hz or 120hz, doom sometimes locks it here. You need to manually change it to 60hz and save it. after it ask you to confirm the setting you can switch it back to your desired Hz. Save and reconfirm your desired HZ. This will fix the problem with-in the game. This is a windows code glitch.) No real fix, but this work around is flawless.

Hope this helps you guys.

you can hardly perceive a difference between 60hz and 120hz...why on earth do you give a ♥♥♥♥, much less two, about 144hz?

Visually perceptible difference is not always the issue. Input lag and input response times are handled in sync with the frame rate, so the higher frame rate, the more responsive the game is.

That's why CS:GO and most other competitive shooter players go for the highest FPS they can - it offers a distinct advantage.

I can do a 100% correct blindtest of 60vs120 120vs144 is alot harder. But 60Hz feels laggy after you have palyed with a 120 for a while.

You realise that you need to use the display port and not hdmi to make use of refresh higher than 60hz?

Only at 4k, or HDMI 1.3 or earlier.

On HDMI 1.4a and later, 1080p at 144Hz is supported just fine.

Yes. There are some 144hz. mon that still use the older hdmi spec. though. (this one)
ASUS VG248QE 24" HD 1920x1080 144Hz 1ms HDMI - requires display port or dual-link dvi for 1xx hz rates

That monitor can run at 144Hz over HDMI, just requires some unofficial tweaks.

My mistake actually, there is no firmware flash for that model.

You learn something new every day.

Bah.. I was hoping you had something :)

It was pretty cheap so..(my monitor)

I have Nvidia GeForce GTX 1060 6GB, even if you turn off v-sync and get over the 60fps cap, it will not go up to 144fps, it might hit the mark occasionally, but it will drop to the 60fps during heavy amounts of demons. I don't know if the 1070 will, but the 1080 might be able to maintain a fps of 144Hz.

I will say this though, Doom gets around 120fps on my rig while Fallout 4, when I have disabled v-sync, gets around 90 to somtimes 100fps.

I can see the difference between 60hz, 75hz, 85hz, 100hz, and 120hz easily. 60Hz looks like a strobelight to me. I can tolerate 75 hz, but anything less than 100 bothers my eyes. I can also pick up pixel lag on LCD screens, even TN screens that can run 120+ Hz vs a CRT, which is why I still run a CRT. Just because YOU can't tell the difference doesn't mean there aren't others who can. Either help the OP or STFU.
