A lot of manufacturers u have to cut it in half like Samsung has motion 240 which is actually 120hz so if I says 120hz most likely it’s a 60hz. Why and how manufacturers do that I have no clue. I just went with a c1 with 4 Hdmi 2.1 ports
Great vid! Quick question tho: will it show the refresh rate option for a TV that only supports HDMI 2.0? Or does it only show up for a 2.1 HDMI port? Thanks!!
Also want to add... when buying a 120hz TV make SURE its not 120hz interpolated. This is a marketing trick that manufacturers use to trick people. Some TVs will advertise 120 to 600hz and arr really only 60hz native the rest of the "hz" are useless to actual frames per second and are called interpolation. Make absolutely sure you buy a 120hz NATIVE panel. On top of this, most Series X games do not have a 120fps mode. 120fps is gonna be common next gen, but its very niche this gen. Most of the games that do have a 120fps mode sacrifice resolution heavily to achieve it unless its a very easy to run game like Ori.
Does the xbox series x have enough power to play games like rocket leauge and assassins creed valhalla at 4k 120hz? Or is it better to get an QHD monitor for 120hz gameplay?
no next gen does true 4k 120. Its all Downscaled. Sea of thieves only runs at 120fps in 1080p on a series X. You need HDMI 2.1 display that supports VRR to get the best expierence.
On my new xbox series x I have a lg cx tv 4k 120 hz and hdmi 2.1. But in settings it says "your tv setup supports up to native 1440p at 120 fps" and doesn't say 4k. I have allowed 4k check. But how to fix this?
Just curious apparently my tv says it has trumotion 120 which I guess isn’t sctuslly 120 fps but it’s letting me play on 120 fps? Am I actually getting it or no?
You might want to try switching your Xbox to 1080p then you might be able to use 120hz my 4K tv will only do 4K 60hz but if I switch my Xbox to 1080p it’ll do 1080p 120hz and the games that are optimized for series x run so much smoother at 1080p 120hz and the resolution differences is very little in my opinion at that frame rate.
@@zachcook1185 If the Hz on your tv/monitor is only 60. You're not getting any higher Hz from lowering resolution. Changing resolution will not give your tv/monitor more Hz. It might show you get more frames on a fps counter (IDK if they have that I don't play console) but those extra frames will do nothing in actual advantage/fluency.

I notice better responsiveness when I'm gaming at 120hz but I'm not noticing much of a change visually, like I did when moving from 30fps to 60fps (night and day difference). I'll like to know if this is the true 120fps my TV is running, as I have never before experienced that refresh rate so I don't really know what to expect.

If I change the input on the TV to allow Dolby Vision and change the Xbox refresh rate to 60hz it will allow Dolby Vision but not gaming or movies at 120hz obviously. I'd like to view movies in Dolby Vision but is there a difference between using 60hz vs 120hz in movies? I can always keep it set at 4k, 120hz, and use HDR10 but wondered if there would be a benefit to switching back and forth. Seems like a pain though. Thanks for the video.
Bro that's not how it works lmao. You JUST said you had a 1080p monitor, so NO, you will not be playing in 4k smh. 1080p is half of 4k. 1920 x 1080 pixels is half of 3840 x 2160 pixels And BRUH, if you have a 144hz monitor, you can see up to 144 fps.

New series x new 4k tv new 4k cable and I get the "sorry your TV isn't telling us it support doesn't support 4K" Yet my Xbox One S connects and the 4K features work properly
Depends on the game, I'll say for racing games and highly competitive online first-person shooters you definitely want 120, basically everything else 4K at solid 60fps noticeably better looking with gameplay plenty smooth.
Yep what charley said :). It can also be a preference but having the 120 FPS in COD has been nice. But I’m doing both 4K 120 on the I have so best of both worlds :)
From what I understand xbox x can't hit anywhere close to 120 fps at 4k. Not even a rtx 3090 can do that in AAA games. It's either 4K rendering resolution OR 120 fps at like 1080p in BEST CASE scenarios.
I’m playing 4K 120 FPS on Cold War on series x and lg cx rn crazy thing is when you turn down resolution it won’t work I don’t understand how it can do it but it does I can feel and see it have pc and ps5 as well trust
@@kylevos8551 word. Idk from all the reviews I've seen none could hit 120 native 4k. For the less tech savvy (I imagine you are since u have pc etc but for others) 120 hertz is a refresh rate which is limited by ur monitor as opposed to the FPS which is dictated/limited by ur machines hardware. Maybe there was an update since the reviews I saw. Are u running a. FPS monitor (HUD) so u can see the frame rate?

Well that would depend. Are you trying to run 4K and 120? Or are you ok with 1080p at 120hz? The 2nd option you will have more monitors to choose from.
Hey 3FN, What TV are you using here? Looks like a Samsung with the GameMode being activated. I have the XsX paired with the Q80T and the 120 Hz option doesn't show up and also says it isn't supported by the TV, which is not true. I have connected to the port 4 which is HDMI 2.1 and I'm using the 2.1 cable supplied with the xbox. I think I need to find the right settings in the TV first.
Yeah I’m using the Q80T as well.? The steps in the video should get you going. But yes maybe make sure you have game mode set to auto so it switches for you. Let me know how it goes.
@@ThreeFirstNames After a bit more research, turns out the 49" and 50" variants of the Q80T only go to 60Hz... I'm a little devastated to say the least as I was not in the slightest bit aware. Thanks for getting back to me!
Hey I have a asus monitor 165hz 1080 and on tomclancys some people get 130 to 140 but mine stays at 119 why is that do I need a 4K monitor dry if I sound like a cry baby I just want to make sure I’m getting full performance?
Haha all good. Unfortunately I’m not the most techy guy. I’m not sure I know the answer. Sorry :/. Maybe quality of cables or something in settings of monitor. Does the game even handle more than 120hz?
Is this the same on Xbox series s? On my Xbox series s I have it set to 1440p at 120hz. Then I go to advanced/then to video modes. I then uncheck allow 4 k because on the Xbox one x you had to do this if you wanted to us 120hz. But if I uncheck allow 4K on my Xbox series s it won’t let me use hdr anymore. But if I leave allow 4K on checked then hdr still works at 1440p 120hz mode. I still have the option to go to 120fps mode on gears 5, is this ok? I guess I no longer have to click allow 4K anymore on the Xbox series , it was only on the Xbox one x.
Ok so question , I'm all good w 4k @120, I own the beast 49 inch (Nano cell 85 series), I see some games run 120 FPS, BUT what happens for example , the Division 2? That doesn't run 120 Fps. I pull up my freesync information and I have a steady read of 119.90 hz while in a game. That says the same while on cold war which is 120 Fps mode. 119.90 is obviously 120 . So does that mean the Division 2 is 120 FPS? I'm a tad confused.
Ohhhh that’s good to know. I’ll keep that in mind for other viewers. Does it work now using the display port? If you can do that? Or maybe can you exchange it?
Is your monitor 4K and does it have a 2.1 hdmi input? You’ll need those to get 4K 120. If it does not you can still get 1440 @ 120 or 1080 120hz. Just all depends on your specs
So... I obviously have the cable because I have the seriesX. I didn’t know it was a special cable so I just plugged it in when you mentioned it. I play on an Alienware monitor that goes up to 240hz. I just went to display options in settings and I only get the 1080p and the 720p option. I saw someone in a different video mention some override option with the hdmi cable but all it did was make my screen small and blurry. Soooo I’m at a loss on how to get the frames
Same here. Pretty sure the series x wants you to have the exact stats it wants or else it won't work. Just spent $680 on a 4k 144hz monitor just to find out it doesn't work. Very cool.
If you just bought it return it. I think the issues with monitors isn’t the Xbox but rather how the monitor allows for you to get 120hz. Does it require you to use a display port cable for 120? Check the manual.
im a little confused how XSX 120 Hz mode works, ik that for most games itll still be 60FPs @4K, yknow, considering even a 3090 cant get 120 at that res on alot of games, but does it lower the res and then upscale, like FPS Boost/Nvidia DLSS does or is it true res, thus the reason that most games are still capped @60 FPS unless you have FPS Boost active. Just cause it seems way too good to be true, kinda knew it was gonna be, but randomly got interested in this and thought id search it up
My Sony 4k TV says it doesn't support 120 hz does that pretty much mean the series X won't perform that well ? And would I have to buy a new TV that does 120z in 4k
Sounds like you would want to upgrade in the future if you want 4K @ 120hz but 4k60hz is still fine for your gaming. Have you checked whether you can do 1080p at 120?
@@ThreeFirstNames I did look for that I saw the 1080 but nothing for 120 just 60hz and another setting of 24 30 and 36 bits per pixel but it is telling me in the Xbox settings that it only goes to 60hz.
Not sure if the pixel stuff I added is important. My Sony is a 2016 model so probably look at upgrading but it's still a great tv. The 60hz and 120hz correct me if im wrong but isn't the difference between the two the amount of blur when moving the camera around in game ? Luke the 120hz is alot less blur
That's not how it works lol. Refresh rate is purely visual, it will not impact your performance in game. However, the average 4k tv is 60hz, meaning you can only see up to 60frames. Going higher than 60frames on a 60hz screen will cause screen tearing. If you want to play at 120fps, you're gonna have to buy an overpriced TV for the same price as a car, or just get a PC monitor during black friday And yeah, 60frames will look blurry compared to 120frames, so technically you're right. BUT, the higher the refresh rate, the more frames that can be displayed in a second, the more cleaner and smoother the image, the less "Blurry" it is
Hi wayne I know you have a video on gameshare but I just got the new Xbox today and was desperate to known so I’m also saying this comment here.

Hmm to be honest I’m not sure as I’ve not been in the situation sorry. You will want to check with your monitor to see if hdmi allows for 120+hz capabilities.
Can you tell me what your specs are? Is that a 4K 120hz tv? Also make sure you know which port is the 2.1 hdmi input. That’s very important. Let’s start with that
Make sure you have your HDMI plugged into the right one that has 2.1 or 2.0 switch your tv to HDMI 2.1 or 2.0 and then switch to 4k that's what I had to do

What if i get 144hz monitor ? Will it downscale for 120hz for my Xbox ? I can’t find any 120hz monitors only 144.
My hdmi 2.1 to displayport 1.4 powered adapter solved everything problem I had with the resolution issue
bro why at the beginning of the video you didn't have the screen refresh in the options and later you did
New series x new 4k tv new 4k cable and I get the "sorry your TV isn't telling us it support doesn't support 4K"
Yet my Xbox One S connects and the 4K features work properly
Did you make sure to put the hdmi cable into the 2.1 hdmi input on the tv?
i’m not really into technology and stuff but which one is better fps or 4k
Depends on the game, I'll say for racing games and highly competitive online first-person shooters you definitely want 120, basically everything else 4K at solid 60fps noticeably better looking with gameplay plenty smooth.
Yep what charley said :). It can also be a preference but having the 120 FPS in COD has been nice. But I’m doing both 4K 120 on the I have so best of both worlds :)
Nice. Now we need more then 10 people worldwide to own a Series X console to enjoy the new tech.
Haha.. touché . We’ll get there. :P
this work on the series s?
From what I understand xbox x can't hit anywhere close to 120 fps at 4k. Not even a rtx 3090 can do that in AAA games. It's either 4K rendering resolution OR 120 fps at like 1080p in BEST CASE scenarios.
I’m playing 4K 120 FPS on Cold War on series x and lg cx rn crazy thing is when you turn down resolution it won’t work I don’t understand how it can do it but it does I can feel and see it have pc and ps5 as well trust
@@kylevos8551 word. Idk from all the reviews I've seen none could hit 120 native 4k. For the less tech savvy (I imagine you are since u have pc etc but for others) 120 hertz is a refresh rate which is limited by ur monitor as opposed to the FPS which is dictated/limited by ur machines hardware. Maybe there was an update since the reviews I saw. Are u running a. FPS monitor (HUD) so u can see the frame rate? Maybe I'm just invested in this because I went the PC Master race route this time lol
Ori has it

I can’t get it on 4K and 120 hz only 1080 and 120 hz
what monitor would I need to get if i want to run 120 fps
Well that would depend. Are you trying to run 4K and 120? Or are you ok with 1080p at 120hz?
The 2nd option you will have more monitors to choose from.
@@ThreeFirstNames I'm ok with 1080p at 120Hz
Hey 3FN, What TV are you using here? Looks like a Samsung with the GameMode being activated. I have the XsX paired with the Q80T and the 120 Hz option doesn't show up and also says it isn't supported by the TV, which is not true. I have connected to the port 4 which is HDMI 2.1 and I'm using the 2.1 cable supplied with the xbox. I think I need to find the right settings in the TV first.
Yeah I’m using the Q80T as well.? The steps in the video should get you going. But yes maybe make sure you have game mode set to auto so it switches for you.
Let me know how it goes.
@@ThreeFirstNames After a bit more research, turns out the 49" and 50" variants of the Q80T only go to 60Hz... I'm a little devastated to say the least as I was not in the slightest bit aware. Thanks for getting back to me!
Oh man that’s not cool. Is it too late to exchange?
@@ThreeFirstNames Yup, picked it up just before Christmas. Rather frustrating as the 55” was only 200€ more expensive at the time!
Gah! Well I think this years version is an even better tv and maybe same price?
I’m pretty upset, my monitor is 4K capable and the refresh rate on it is 240 hz but it doesn’t have a hdmi 2.1 input 😭😭😭
Oh no :(. Great pc gaming monitor though I’d imagine
So if I get a 4K HDMI 2.0 tv for my XSX what will I be able to do?
Max you can do is 4K at 60hz. It 1080 at 120hz if your tv allows that
Hey I have a asus monitor 165hz 1080 and on tomclancys some people get 130 to 140 but mine stays at 119 why is that do I need a 4K monitor dry if I sound like a cry baby I just want to make sure I’m getting full performance?
Haha all good. Unfortunately I’m not the most techy guy. I’m not sure I know the answer. Sorry :/. Maybe quality of cables or something in settings of monitor. Does the game even handle more than 120hz?
How did you reset it ? You didn’t even show us you just skipped the part bro…
Hi mate I got one for Christmas
Awesome! Enjoy :)
@@ThreeFirstNames will do
What’s gonna be your first game?
@@ThreeFirstNames idk maybe Skyrim or black ops cold war
Same
How do I know if my tv is 120hz?
My tv doesn't show 2.0 hdmi it only shows standard and compatibility
Will it work on a 4K LG tv then
Yes should. If you the 4K tv you have had the ability to do 4K 120
It PURELY depends on your refresh rate. You can't just "Play 120fps on a tv bcuz it's 4k". You need 120hz or more
Is this the same on Xbox series s? On my Xbox series s I have it set to 1440p at 120hz. Then I go to advanced/then to video modes. I then uncheck allow 4 k because on the Xbox one x you had to do this if you wanted to us 120hz. But if I uncheck allow 4K on my Xbox series s it won’t let me use hdr anymore. But if I leave allow 4K on checked then hdr still works at 1440p 120hz mode. I still have the option to go to 120fps mode on gears 5, is this ok? I guess I no longer have to click allow 4K anymore on the Xbox series , it was only on the Xbox one x.
Sounds like you worked it out while typing this out?
Ok so question , I'm all good w 4k @120, I own the beast 49 inch (Nano cell 85 series), I see some games run 120 FPS, BUT what happens for example , the Division 2? That doesn't run 120 Fps. I pull up my freesync information and I have a steady read of 119.90 hz while in a game.
That says the same while on cold war which is 120 Fps mode.
119.90 is obviously 120 . So does that mean the Division 2 is 120 FPS?
I'm a tad confused.
Hey. Some great questions. From what I’m reading the division is 120hz capable :)
Why can't I play in 120hz and in 4k at the same time?
Ive got a 165hz monitor and says it wont work im so confused.
Same problem. Spent 300 on a 165 hert asus moniter. Can’t get over 60.

Ohhhh that’s good to know. I’ll keep that in mind for other viewers. Does it work now using the display port? If you can do that? Or maybe can you exchange it?
@@ThreeFirstNames basically you have to get a display port splitter for xbox series x. Which is like $30 i heard.
Do I have to buy a separate 2.0 hdmi my tv has a hdmi 2.0 plug but it’s a different size from the hdmi that comes from the xbox
HDMI does not change size. So that’s a different cable or port. Is it display port?
I have a roku 55 inch 4K 120hz tv but it doesn’t work it says it doesn’t have 120hz even though Amazon said it did

Sorry I don’t know the specific tv. But you should be able to check in the specs or manual.
I bought a series s with a monitor is that good to?
Is your monitor 4K and does it have a 2.1 hdmi input? You’ll need those to get 4K 120. If it does not you can still get 1440 @ 120 or 1080 120hz. Just all depends on your specs
@@ThreeFirstNames i dont care if i get 4k i just wanna play 120 fps 120 hz

I just purchased a monitor. Followed all your steps. My monitor supports 1440p 144hz but I can't enable it. I can run 1080p at 120hz. Help please.
Monitor settings are a bit different. Try the steps in this video.
Does your monitor have a 2.1,hdmi input?
So... I obviously have the cable because I have the seriesX. I didn’t know it was a special cable so I just plugged it in when you mentioned it. I play on an Alienware monitor that goes up to 240hz. I just went to display options in settings and I only get the 1080p and the 720p option. I saw someone in a different video mention some override option with the hdmi cable but all it did was make my screen small and blurry. Soooo I’m at a loss on how to get the frames
Ok so your monitor is not 4K but probably 1440? Is this correct?
I’m actually hoping to do a live stream to show how to do this tonight. Or maybe tomorrow
I have a 144 Hz monitor and I am doing everything in this video but it still says out of range please help
Is your monitor 4K or 1080?
@@ThreeFirstNames mine is 240hz, can i use the 120 on xbox series x?
Yes you should be able to.
Same here. Pretty sure the series x wants you to have the exact stats it wants or else it won't work. Just spent $680 on a 4k 144hz monitor just to find out it doesn't work. Very cool.
If you just bought it return it. I think the issues with monitors isn’t the Xbox but rather how the monitor allows for you to get 120hz. Does it require you to use a display port cable for 120? Check the manual.
Mine says it supports 120 for games but not tv resolution
Can i play 120fps with an small 140hz Monitor?
Should yes
Yes
I have a 144hz monitor but it says it's not compatible, I'm using the HDMI cable that came with the console. Please help
Monitors are much trickier than tvs when it comes to this. You can try the steps in this video: th-cam.com/video/oVQ6BGdfiNU/w-d-xo.html
im a little confused how XSX 120 Hz mode works, ik that for most games itll still be 60FPs @4K, yknow, considering even a 3090 cant get 120 at that res on alot of games, but does it lower the res and then upscale, like FPS Boost/Nvidia DLSS does or is it true res, thus the reason that most games are still capped @60 FPS unless you have FPS Boost active.
Just cause it seems way too good to be true, kinda knew it was gonna be, but randomly got interested in this and thought id search it up
Yeah. That goes way above my understanding and knowledge. Be interested to hear what you find
Yeah it does. I remember learning that the visual quality scales down so it can achieve 120fps
My Sony 4k TV says it doesn't support 120 hz does that pretty much mean the series X won't perform that well ? And would I have to buy a new TV that does 120z in 4k
Sounds like you would want to upgrade in the future if you want 4K @ 120hz but 4k60hz is still fine for your gaming.
Have you checked whether you can do 1080p at 120?
@@ThreeFirstNames I did look for that I saw the 1080 but nothing for 120 just 60hz and another setting of 24 30 and 36 bits per pixel but it is telling me in the Xbox settings that it only goes to 60hz.
Not sure if the pixel stuff I added is important. My Sony is a 2016 model so probably look at upgrading but it's still a great tv. The 60hz and 120hz correct me if im wrong but isn't the difference between the two the amount of blur when moving the camera around in game ? Luke the 120hz is alot less blur
That's not how it works lol. Refresh rate is purely visual, it will not impact your performance in game. However, the average 4k tv is 60hz, meaning you can only see up to 60frames. Going higher than 60frames on a 60hz screen will cause screen tearing. If you want to play at 120fps, you're gonna have to buy an overpriced TV for the same price as a car, or just get a PC monitor during black friday
And yeah, 60frames will look blurry compared to 120frames, so technically you're right. BUT, the higher the refresh rate, the more frames that can be displayed in a second, the more cleaner and smoother the image, the less "Blurry" it is
I have a 2.4 8k HDMI Cable, but it does 4k at 60fps and 120hz at 1080p....

Hi.
Yeah you’re fine to do that. Just don’t make either of your consoles a home Xbox :)

You will want to check with your monitor to see if hdmi allows for 120+hz capabilities.
There is an adapter that works pretty well. I watched a video about it looking for it right now.

Let’s start with that
I bought at tv that has 144hz max and it says imy tv setup DOESNT support 120hz and my games won’t run at 120 fps what do I do
Do you have an hdmi 2.1 input/source on the tv?
someone know what tv is that he has?
Believe it was the q90t at the time of this video.
Mine is a 4k tv, and when i try to change it to 4k on the xbox, it comes up with the keep thing so i press yes and it doesnt switch
Make sure you have your HDMI plugged into the right one that has 2.1 or 2.0 switch your tv to HDMI 2.1 or 2.0 and then switch to 4k that's what I had to do
Yea. Have to make sure you have the hdmi 2.1 cable in the 2.1 input. Not all 4K TVs have this input. So hopefully you’re good to go :)
Wait what if my xbox series x is connected to my PC? (If you dont know thats fine)

what if the description says 2.0x3 what does that mean?
means you have 3 - 2.0 hdmi inputs.

You don't need a 2.1. 2.1 is for future games.
While you’re correct for non 4K 120, IF you want to play 4K @120hz you do in fact need a 2.1 hdmi.
Is there anyway to get 4k and 120 hz or do you have to choose between one or the other does anyone know?
If your tv is able to do 120hz in 4K then yes you def can do that. The settings in this video should accomplish that for you :)
If you have a monitor it may be a bit trickier. I have a video on that which has helped some.
