Maximum manufacturer-listed refresh rate, not measured motion clarity. The port-specific limits below matter; HDMI and DisplayPort can support different modes.
Manufacturer specification · Up to 180 Hz at 2560 × 1440 through DisplayPort; HDMI is limited to 144 Hz.
Manufacturer specification · At 2560 × 1440 over DisplayPort or USB-C with DP OverClocking on; default 165 Hz. HDMI supports up to 144 Hz. Needs a compatible source and cable; lower the rate if overclocking causes errors.
Match the monitor to the connection. Refresh limits depend on the input, cable and source device. Confirm the exact regional ports, stand adjustment and mount. Manufacturer response-time methods such as MPRT and GtG are different; neither the image nor these figures establish an independent motion or colour-quality test.
17 verified differences, most decision-relevant first. 7 are also drawn in Visual facts above. Missing information stays separate.
