There were some issues with enabling 60Hz with SLI. Maybe they haven't been fully addressed. You could try disabling SLI and see if you get your 60

If youre able to use DVI that may resolve it, which the monitor should have came with one.

Did you try disabling SLI? All I can think of is updating your GPU drivers if they are out of date, and maybe trying a different DP cable.

Try switching from 1.1 to 1.2 again, or unplug the monitor from your GPU, wait, then plug it back and let Windows detect it again.

Go to devices and printer, right click on your monitor, select display settings, advanced settings, monitor tab, and try to change your refresh rate there. (or something similar depends on OS)

Reinstall the Driver > custom > clean

^ As for this, U have a clue what you're talking about?

The 1.1 and 1.2 are DisplayPort; and this is a Mode within the Monitor Menu; like the video shows.

Thats correct^ and i'm runnung it off the dpi, but cannot set 60hz?? My only remaining theoy is that it's a windows 10 issue or a nvidia driver issue?

If any1 has the same or similar system and is running 60hz please comment, likewise to people with ideas or solutions
