The Post-Check Protocol
-
GPU vs. Motherboard Port
Action: Always plug the video cable (DisplayPort/HDMI) directly into the Graphics Card's ports (horizontal ports) at the bottom of the PC. Why: The vertical ports on the motherboard are for integrated graphics and will not work once a dedicated GPU is installed.
-
Cable Performance Check
Action: Ensure you use a high-quality cable rated for your monitor's maximum resolution and refresh rate (e.g., DisplayPort is usually required for 1440p @ 144Hz+). Why: Using an older or lower-spec cable (like HDMI 1.4) will prevent you from accessing the monitor's full potential refresh rate and resolution.
-
Unlock Refresh Rate
Action: After booting, go to Windows Display Settings and manually set the display adapter's refresh rate to the monitor's maximum (e.g., 144Hz or 240Hz). Why: Windows defaults to 60Hz; skipping this step means you are paying for a high refresh rate monitor but only seeing a basic 60 frames per second.
-
Adaptive Sync Activation
Action: In your GPU control panel (NVIDIA Control Panel or AMD Adrenalin), ensure G-Sync or FreeSync is enabled for your monitor. Why: Adaptive Sync technologies eliminate screen tearing and stuttering, creating a smooth visual experience in games.
-
Resolution & Scaling
Action: Verify that the display settings show the monitor's Native Resolution (e.g., 2560x1440 for 1440p) and check the Windows scaling level (e.g., 100% or 150%). Why: Running at the wrong resolution results in a blurry image, while incorrect scaling makes text and icons too small or too large.
-
Ergonomics & Posture
Action: Adjust the monitor's height so the top third of the screen is at eye level and sit an arm's length away from the display. Why: Correct ergonomic positioning prevents neck strain, reduces eye fatigue, and is crucial for comfortable, long-term PC usage.
