G531GU-79AT6PB1 + Asus monitor vg278qf 165hz Issue

[Snippercat]

Hi

I have a G531GU-79AT6PB1 Laptop and an Asus monitor vg278qf and I want to connect them both in order to have the 165hz the monitor can deliever.

Unfortunatly via HDMI I cant surpass the 60hz, and the only way to do so is via DisplayPort that the laptop does not have a port.

Can anyone help me on how to get the 165hz? Maybe an adaptor or a cable of some sort?

Best regards

Welcome to the forums!

Do you know that your G531GU may include a USB type-C display port output and want to confirm / look into that option?
