No matter what I try it keeps reverting back to 60Hz.
where are you setting it? nvidia control panel? which DE on mint?
Cinnamon DE has no refresh rate option. Nvidia settings never works as it keeps forgetting it at reboot.
you need to run nvidia settings as root and save the settings to the xorg configuration
still not working.
what are you using to verify current refresh?
whats the output of xrandr -q?
I’m using this to verify https://www.vsynctester.com/detect.html

which browser are you using?
firefox
do sudo nvidia-settings for me and change to 144, then do xrandr -q for me again to make sure we’re on the same page
Your monitor can use 144HZ but is currently only doing 60
I did that multiple times already.
ok, well good luck to you. hope you figure it out.
did you click apply
yep
can you run xrandr --output default --mode 1920x1080_144
warning: output default not found; ignoring
install arandr and use that
Found a solution. Create a file called 144.sh which executes #!/bin/bash
xrandr --output DVI-D-0 --mode 1920x1080 --rate 144 then create a launcher and place it in autostart. Done!
