Artefacts at 144hz.

[Pimmeh]

Monitor displays artefacts at 144hz, 120hz looks fine. Is this issue related to the graphics card or the monitor?

Specs:
Intel i5-4670k
MSI G45
XFX R9 290

Hi,

I have the same problem and have since i bought this monitor.
I am running a AMD R9 290x and can't go higher than 120hz otherwise I see that you see.

Can this be a monitor issue or gpu?

You've probably already tried the following but just in case, try ...

1 - Check for loose cables
2 - try another DP cable
