    Folks, I have a Razer Blade 14 and a 144 hz monitor and I thought I would ask this question. Since my only option is HDMI out to connect to that monitor, is there anyway I can get frames higher than 60hz at 1080p?? From what i have read I need dual-link DVI out in order to support this type of monitor....

    I connected to my desktop PC displays that I normally run at 120hz (usuing dual link dvi from desktop) and I could not go higher than 60 over a HDMI cable. I'd be curious if this could somehow work with a particular cable or driver.

    Once you get used to 120hz it is hard to go back to 60hz gaming. Heck I even prefer to lower my settings on my monster desktop rig if needed just to make sure i maintain 120fps, over turning up the settings and only getting 60.
