So, the new consoles can output up to 120 Hz. This can be set manually on the Xbox Series X, but not so much on the PS5. However, many monitors that support higher refresh rates only support those refresh rates on the DisplayPort inputs, such as my Samsung Odyssey G9, and have a cap of 60 Hz on the HDMI input. The adapter in this video allows you to connect your HDMI output from your console to a DisplayPort input on your monitor, allowing you to take full advantage of your monitor refresh rates. No time stamps since this video is straight to the point. Thank you for watching, and consider subscribing!

Had been looking around for a proper answer if this was possible or not and didn't find one until I found this, thank you so much! Straight to the point and good explanation, amazing job brother
Thank you!
@DocValentino I read it'll still only be 60hz even with an adaptor.
@@user-fs8lz9re2qim already 120hz without the adapter so thats false. The adapter allows for 120hz AND 1440p on console. And of course the monitor has to be capable of supporting those specs.
This is a short video with all the information we need, great job dude!
Thank you! I’m learning that straight and to the point is the best approach for a video. I plan on trying to stick to that. Sometimes it’s easy to start getting too wordy.
Great video! Straight to the point and still with intro/outro under 3 minutes. Also gave some very useful ""trivia"" about HDMI not always delivering the best possible resolution and frame rate -which helped me with another issue I was just facing. Keep it up
Thank you!
I subscribed just cos of the ads joke 😂
😂 I’m glad someone shares my sense of humor! I appreciate you.
same, never stop content creating :D
I’ve had some trouble getting videos made since I started a new day job, just from time constraints. Thank you for the encouragement. I have been trying to put together my next video, but was waiting on getting a new camera lens, which I got last week. Hopefully back to it very soon!
Me too😂😂
Me 2 😂😂😂😂
DocValentino, thanks for the video. I would like to add that what you're looking for is an "HDMI to DisplayPort" adapter. Cords and adapters are not always bi-directional, so don't pick 'DisplayPort to HDMI'. Next watch for old DisplayPort 1.2 adapters as they will give you issues. Instead look for 1.4 or better yet 2.0. The G9 only needs a DP 1.4 but 2.0 is backwards compatible. Last, I've contacted both Microsoft and Samsung to confirm and they were both useless. UA-cam and Reddit, FTW.
4k@60hz only?
For anyone wondering I think this will only work if you have either a PC to switch the refresh rate or if the monitor OS will allow you to do it. You can see in the video his OS allows him to change the the refresh rate directly on his monitor. If you can’t do one of those two things your series X/S and or PS5 won’t auto switch. You have to manually change it to 120+
How
It’ll only auto switch the hertz on new gen consoles if you have a 2.1 hdmi to 1.4 and up display adapter due to the 2.0 HDMI not being compatible to display anything above 60hz on the ps5 and series X/S--- note you need to figure out which display port version your monitor needs in order to refresh the rate of games higher than 60hz if your monitor isn’t compatible with the 2.1 HDMI
I’m on a Samsung 60hz monitor but upgrading to a 240hz Acer monitor n I was worried about how I would get 240hz on console. I’ve been searching for videos about it and this is the only video that explains exactly on how to get the 240hz…. Your a life saver man you’ve gained a new subscriber 💯
just an fyi you won't get 240 hz on a console. It will say 240 on your monitor but will actually only be at 120 because that's all the ps5 and xbox series s/x can do.

thank you for being very straight forward with great instruction on how to use the adapter, Great vid
Fantastic advice ...
Straight too the point
Great peice man 👌
i picked up the adapter after having no luck with the adapter i bought from best buy. after a bit of fiddling i was able to get my dell u2711 to accept a display port signal from the xbox one x. thanks for the great tip!
What did you do bro? I have a 27e6qc that supports all that
what did you have to do
It didn't work right away. I kept getting an error from the monitor saying the supported resolution was not supported and to change it 2560 x 1440 @ 60 Hz. After poking around in the xbox settings I turned of 50hz and 24hz and it worked!
@@metric152does it work for ps5 and if it does do you know what port to buy for it?
Das ist das beste Video wo es zu finden gibt.Nach mehr wie einem Jahr und mehreren Versuchen mit Firmware Updates kein Erfolg.
Danke für dieses Video es funktioniert, alles wie erklärt.

After I put my hdmi into the dvi port my monitor just goes black?
thank you so much! i couldn't figure out for the life of me how to do this or where to get one of these!
Excellent video. Well explained!
Thank you, cuz!
Thank you very much!! These will work great with the new triple monitor KVM setup I am building to switch between my desktop, laptop dock for work/personal, and (through yet another HDMI switch) my Chromecast, PS3, PS5, Steam Deck, and Analogue Pocket dock!
You have a new subscriber =3
I got one of those adapters and my monitor still says 60 hz?
THANK YOU. Ive tried three different adapters at this point, after being told by the folks at BestBuy and Staples that these would work for sure no problem even though they say displayport to hdmi and not hdmi to display port.
Yeah.. the cables are pretty much all directional.. only from DisplayPort to HDMI, and not the other way. A good handful of people have reported black screen issues with the device. Amazon makes returns/refunds easy though, so it’s kind of risk free to see if it works for your setup. Thank you!
@@DocValentinoin the video you said the opposite which direction is it actually.
The adapter in the video is HDMI to DisplayPort. Cables with DisplayPort on one end and HDMI on the other are directional from DisplayPort to HDMI… two separate things, and both are true.
@@DocValentino Thank you very much!! These will work great with the new triple monitor KVM setup I am building to switch between my desktop, laptop dock for work/personal, and (through yet another HDMI switch) my Chromecast, PS3, PS5, Steam Deck, and Analogue Pocket dock!
Helped me out. Nice simple quick informative video subscribed!
Thank you!!! That exactly what I needed to know. My kids pc is getting 240 but his ps5 is getting 60 and know I know why mine is only getting 60hz.
I bought it and it’s not giving me the settings for 120 help please
This video gave some hope in a chaotic situation where I had no idea why my screen is only outputting 60hz (even tho the manual says it can recieve 1440p144hz via hdmi). I've ordered the adapter and I hope it will work. Cheers!
did it work?
@@Slow2Genturned out Fortnite didn't output 120fps (even tho it should) but Overwatch did, so HDMI alone works for me. I think a powered HDMI 2.0 or 2.1 adapter should work tho
Welp let's hope this works for me. Just ordered it and a displayport cable, wish me luck lol.
You tell me. You already have your "likes". Now I hope it works with a series S and a monitor that can run up to 180Hz.
@@elradhikhal5599 i guess I have my likes? Don't really care about 1080p, I can run that with my old monitor on my series x. I wanted 1440p on my ps5 says it's not supported. But I can run 1440p on my series x... Makes sense I guess.
The link posted isint the same item…?
WARNING: the adapter linked does not work
The Xbox Series X and S have no
DisplayPort, but you can use an adapter to connect the consoles to a monitor that only
supports DisplayPort.
To transmit high-resolution video and audio signals from your Xbox to a DisplayPort monitor you'll have to buy an HDMI 2.0 to DisplayPort 1.2 active adapter.
Had to find out the hard way they haven’t invented the hdmi 2.1 to display Port cable
If you're asking why HDMI 2.0 and not HDMI
2.1 which the Xbox Series X and S support, it is because there is no HDMI 2.1 to
DisplayPort active adapter currently
available on the market.
@@xilestreaks3083 so will this adapter that he shows in the video let me get 120 fps?
@@plaxx6.626 hey I was going buy one to find out I believe on the series s it should do 1080p at @120 but idk about 1440p @120
Hey guys.. it claims to be able to do 1440p at 120Hz, but I wouldn’t count on it. Some people have reported getting a black screen with the device when switching to higher refresh rates.
Is there any input delay from the adapter? And it is capable of 120hz right even though it says 60hz on Amazon
Mine doesn't work!!??? I've got a ps5 and just get a blank screen, but the monitor recognises there's something plugged in, but no display
It says my DP isnt picking up a signal even tho its a HDMI > DP ends.
Is there any adapters that can do 4k@120 through DP 1.4
I stumbled upon your video about 21:9 on XSX and now I'm surprised to see your shirt. Cheers from Brasil!!
Very nice! I love Brasil! I’ve only been able to visit once. I had an exchange student from there when I was younger, and I think of him as a brother to this day.
That's lovely. Keep up the good work. 🤛
okay i usually dont like or sub to anyone that asks for it but that was so smooth i got to now
😂 Thank you! I have actually decided to stop asking all together. It’s also been difficult to find the time to make videos recently. I wish I could focus all of my energy on UA-cam, but the day job pays the bills.
If I got a DP Adaptor what Hdmi would i have to plug into it to get 1440p @144hz
I bought the product and set it up correctly with my ps5. It runs 1440p at 120hz but the screen rapidly goes blank and is pretty much unplayable. How do it fix this?
Don’t do 1440p
Can I play 1440p 120fps on ps5 with this
Any luck?
Anyone got an answer to this question ??
No
Yes
You can't with this, you'd need that to do that!
Ngl that super ultrawide looks pretty sexy. I just got an Alienware AW3423DWF (just regular ultrawide lol) to go with my new PC, but now I'm looking at a PS5 and XSX running at a 16:9 aspect ratio on the same monitor and rethinking life decisions.

Hello, thank you so much for your help! I have the odyssey ultra wide monitor. I got it at Costco I want to connect my Xbox and my apple MacBook Eyre. I’m just trying to figure out which one I should use the HDMI input for and watch what I should use the display port for? Thank you so much for your help! Right now I have been switching back-and-forth my HDMI cable every time lol I really need to have both connected. I found a UA-cam video a while back that had a great cable recommendation and I should’ve got it back then and I never did. I’ve been looking for hours on UA-cam for that video and I can’t seem to find it in my history, unfortunately lol thank you for your help!

Are you On 120 hz After You Used The DisplayPort/Adapter ? ( Please Answer)
Omg tank you so much man like my Xbox don’t even have a port to connect the display port but this vidor changed all
Thank you for posting this.
Does this not work on ps5? Tried it out on my monitor but it just shows a black screen
I have a ps5 this did work for me! But it won’t say 120hz in settings. My screen will go black turning into the higher frames and it’ll range from the first few minutes i plays 120-140fps. For my settings I have HDCP off Prioritize performance in BOTH GAME SETTINGS AND CONSOLE SETTINGS. and 120Hz on Automatic.
Same problem have you fixed it?
Just put this on my odyssey g9 for my Xbox series s! Works like a charm! 120hz at 1440p
You just earn another subscriber. I recently got the g9 just like you and have had this problem with my ps5. Hopefully this device helps. Definitely need to invest in a PC so I can push this bad boy to its true potential. Great videos, keep up the content!
Thank you! I appreciate it! With PS5, it works for some games. For instance, CoD Cold War wouldn’t let me select 120Hz (even though it’s supported), but Fortnite did… and I verified in the video output settings that it was outputting 120Hz after changing the setting in Fortnite.
Which cable did you use for displayport to hdmi?
Thank you I followed your instructions and got it to work.
Great!
I have a ASUS ROG P248q that only supports 60hz on hdmi but 180hz on dp, I bought an hdmi to dp adapter, everything worked fine until I went into a game and enabled 120hz, when I enabled it my screen just goes black… Please anyone, I am desperate I don’t have any money to buy a new monitor… Is there any sort of fix? So I can play on 120hz?

@Ahmed Al-Shakaili Yes make sure it's updated to the newest firmware.
how does hdmi 2.0 support 1440p and 120 hz???

Thanks Doc!
No problem. Please be aware that people have reported this device not working properly for them. I tested it when I made the video, but didn’t use it extensively. Amazon has a great return policy if it doesn’t work for you.
@@DocValentino just got it delivered today from Amazon and it works perfectly. I have an older gaming monitor that only supports 60+ hertz from DP or DVI-D. Booted mw2 and its 120😁
Can anyone help me? It still doesn’t work.
Mine isn't working, it just turns into a black screen whenever I get into a 120hz compatible game with performance mode activate
Monitor should be able to display 120hz through displayport since it reaches 180hz when using my pc
Thanks. Greetings from Poland :)
The pleasure is mine. Thank you!
Very interesting 🤔 does the monitor show the 1080p@120hz on the ps5 menu too? , liked the explanation 😎👍🏼
Thank you for watching and for the question. I apologize for a delayed response. The answer to this is somewhat not straight forward, because it will vary per game.. The PS5 will need to be on performance mode.. then the game needs to support 120 Hz. This is because there is no setting on the PS5 to manually set the output to 120 Hz, and the setting is going to be in-game for those that support it. I tested this with 2 games.. CoD Black Ops: Cold War and Fortnite. The in-game settings for CoD would not allow me to select 120 Hz at all, so no go for that one. Fortnite, however, did allow me to select 120 Hz, and while Fortnite is running, if you go to Settings>Screen and Video>Video Output>Video Output Information, it shows the Resolution as 1920 x 1080 - 120 Hz. So to make that long story short, the answer is yes, but it depends on the game.
So the adapter did not allow you to play any Call of Duty game in 120fps?
@@DocValentino so that’s not 1440p 120hz? U were only able to get 1080p 120hz?
Ok, so I don't need this cause I have the same monitor it has a 2.1 hdmi port and I have the hdmi cable for it, I was hoping this will make any game at 120hz. Glad to bump to this video didn't waste my money.
How long is the hdmi cable? Can I put the usb in the front of the ps5 and the hdmi will still reach the back? Let me know please
I need one that supports 2160 pixels, VRR, HDR and 120 fps
I heard these devices get really warm. Like dangerously warm. How is it for you?
I have actually never physically touched it while gaming. I'll have to remember to see. I have an infrared temp sensor I can even get a reading with.. maybe I'll try gaming for an hour or so, and check it when I get a chance. Thank you for bringing it up.
@@DocValentino have you tried it. My one and only concern is if this method really did something bad to the xbox itself.
@@Sora5024 I had a chance to run my PS5 on it for a little bit, but I wasn’t gaming, just going through menus and idle. I didn’t even measure the temp, because the warmth from it wasn’t enough to be of concern.

I have just been busy with starting a new job and everything, but it’s on my list 😊

What console are you using? On PS5, you have to set the console to performance mode on settings before you can set the game to 120Hz in the in game settings I believe.
@@DocValentino I’m using ps5 but it doesn’t work
So do you have to buy a display port cable.? Or do you just need a hdmi cable and the display port adapter for it to work.
Yes.. you do also need a DisplayPort cable. Most monitors come with one.
So I tried this
I also have the g9 monitor
I got the hdmi- display port adapter I have the monitor saying 120z but the Xbox series x is capped at 1440p at 60z it will not go to 1440p at 120z only 1080p 120z
wait so i have a hdmi cord and the end of it is a display port so its basically both with that work for connecting my ps5 to a monitor that uses display port
What about if your running a capture card that only had hdmi?
I bought and connected but I can’t adjust any setting on monitor such screen size response time refresh rate
I have HDMI to DP adapter but whenever i try to connect it, the screen just goes to black. I wonder if it is because the adapter is cheap, like $8 USD. I need help please.

You showed with an Xbox..on PS5 now, you get 4K@120hz through the HDMI 2.1 port. No adapter needed unless you wanna force clock it over 120hz , which is diminishing returns at that point
What he’s saying is the monitors hdmi port is only 2.0 not 2.1 so it won’t go 120hz

Yep! And hope it works. Doesn’t work for everyone.
