Reddit reviews Club3D VESA Certified CAC-2068 DisplayPort to DisplayPort 1.4/Hbr3 Cable DP 1.4 8K 60Hz 2M/6.56ft, Black

Good alternative if you want to be the very best

Note: Also Vesa Certified

I bought this one for my 240hz, to replace the OEM one that was failing.

It's certified.

I just bought this monitor a month ago for the same price and I'm loving it. Incredible value, great picture quality.

I'll only add in that the included display port cable didn't work with my setup, so I bought this one on Amazon and it works perfect. Running g-sync on 1080ti.

Had a quick look at Amazon, and the Club 3D CAC-2068 from Amazon.ca is probably your best bet. DisplayPort 1.4, and it has Prime shipping. At 25 bucks, it's not cheap compared to a lot of other cables, but that's the premium you pay for a VESA-certified cable. Should be a rock solid cable for any monitor you throw at it.

There's also the Accell UltraAV but it's only DP 1.2, and the Startech.com Cable has too many negative reviews for me to recommend it.

Need the exact specs for this but looking at general 670 specs, it has 1x HDMI 1.4 and 1x DP 1.2 ports. HDMI 1.4 supports max. 1080p 120Hz, so it can't run your monitor at 1440p 144Hz and DP1.2 should support 1440p 144Hz yet some cables might still fail to deliver that, especially if some VRR technology is involved.

I'd suggest getting a certified DP1.4 cable and trying that to make it work, I'm using this cable and it serves me well.

I use this one : https://www.amazon.ca/gp/product/B0767F5DNR/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o05_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

If using DisplayPort (assuming you are) then make sure you've got a good cable like this one or one that says "VESA Certified." While I'm not using an AMD GPU, my GTX 1070 using a FreeSync2 panel (BenQ EX3203R) was black screening mostly on scene transitions for seconds at a time (so a potential ramp up/down of the GPU clock). The cable solved the black screening issue completely. Worth a shot as they're not too expensive. (EDIT: This was all with any FreeSync enabled on the monitor in the OSD settings)

As and aside, I did also use CRU to fix another issue (getting G-Sync Compatibility to enable/work with the monitor), but that had nothing do with my black screening.

I don't have experiance sorry but I doubt you will get better result, you can try this cable which solve high fps problem but I don't think it will solve sound issue https://www.amazon.com/Club3D-CAC-2068-DisplayPort-Cable-6-56ft/dp/B0767F5DNR/ref=sr_1_3?keywords=DisplayPort+8k&qid=1554065765&s=electronics&sr=1-3

I tried that myself and it did nothing. Replacing the DP cable with a certified one fixed all the stuttering and Flickering while in game. I bought this one.

Also I found out that connecting HDMI 2.0 also fixed the stuttering and Flickering.

For people having flickering issues lots of people are saying try a quality DisplayPort cable. Here is one I found on Amazon, Club3D DisplayPort 1.4/HBR3 Cable DP 1.4 8K 60Hz 2m/6.56ft https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0767F5DNR/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_i_4g9TCbTXS0BC2
Edit a word.

It's okay! :) I understand your frustration. On a few different occasions a bad DP cable has caused extremely odd behavior with monitors I've had which was quickly fixed by a higher quality cable.

Most recently, i was doing 3440x1440 (the monitor listed here) and a cable I had would sometimes make the monitor go out of 120hz mode and be stuck in 60hz. Once I got this cable: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0767F5DNR/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o04_s01?ie=UTF8&psc=1
it's been rock solid, no issues whatsoever.

Just get this, its Vesa-certified DP 1.4 and typically recommended.

I've heard these are incredible: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0767F5DNR/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_i_595nDbFEG5KQN

Yes I get full resolution on macOS.

This is the cable I am using.

i tried 2 different cables which were the following:

https://www.amazon.ca/gp/product/B0767F5DNR/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o01_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

All 3 display port slots on my gpu produce the same effect.
Unfortunately i have no other displayport capable devices to test the monitor, and no other display port displays to test the gpu.
Both monitor and gpu are brand new.
Guess i may have to try and get my hands on another display to test.
Thanks for your help!

Absolutely love it. 120hz no problem, no dead pixels and very minimal IPS glow (maybe out to an inch or two at some corners) and colors are fantastic. Easily the best monitor I've ever owned. Also, on my GTX1080, GSYNC is the Shit. =)

​

May want to consider getting an upgraded cable instead of using the one that comes with it. This one is certified 8k at 60hz and will have no prob passing 120hz to our monitor. Not sure if it helped me honestly but it can't hurt! lol

So this will get me going at 240hz?

Here ya go: Club3D CAC-2068 DisplayPort to DisplayPort 1.4/HBR3 Cable DP 1.4 8K 60Hz 2m/6.56ft, Black Vesa Certified https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0767F5DNR/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_i_MNrVCb7J9KJTN

That's the only one i can find on Amazon that's actually vesa certified. Everything else is counterfeit.

There is a little bit of work involved, but its well worth saving $$$ compared to a G-Sync monitor.

First, download the latest nividia drivers.

1. Open nividia control panel by right clicking on the desktop view
   
2. Click display, then set up G-Sync
   
3. Click enable G-Sync, then either full screen or full screen and windowed mode
   
4. Click the monitor (should have the model name underneath)
   
5. It may say that it is not G-Sync compatible, but it has been verified by many users.
   
6. Check enable settings for selected display model, then click apply at the bottom
   
7. This step is optional, but recommended for this monitor. Click 3D settings, then manage 3D settings. Scroll down to vertical sync, then select fast from the drop down menu, and click apply at the bottom.
   
   You will need to link the GPU and the monitor using a good quality displayport cable. Any one with not too many bad reviews will do, however anything over 10ft seems to have a high defect rate.
   
   This one is DP1.4, however it is backwards compatible and is certified by the DP organization.

Really? Can you tell me more about this?

I bought this, listed as DP 1.2. It’s VESA certified so I thought we were in the clear but I had trouble with keeping my monitors overclocked.

Someone mentioned it’s because I ordered DP 1.2 and not DP 1.4, so I ordered these ones labeled as DP 1.4 instead.

Was I misinformed and just happened to receive some bad cables?

any dp cable that supports 240hz 1080p bandwidth will do

https://www.amazon.co.uk/DisplayPort-Benfei-Display-Gold-Plated-Lenovo/dp/B077BPW8XJ/ref=mp_s_a_1_4?crid=7YU1JD35PHZA&keywords=1.2+displayport+cable&qid=1555595609&s=gateway&sprefix=1.2+dis&sr=8-4 works fine for me, just make sure you firmly push it into the monitor dp since it required a bit of force for the locking mechanism

club 3d will always be the premium (would recommend for durability, very costly) but for this monitor does not need this much bandwidth, https://www.amazon.co.uk/Club3D-CAC-2068-DisplayPort-Cable-6-56ft/dp/B0767F5DNR/ref=pd_aw_lpo_23_tr_img_2?_encoding=UTF8&psc=1&refRID=C03A5FRGWYFQZ6RAG9E7

also with gsync comp enabled the ghosting artifact on edges is gone even @ 240+ fps (mostly why I went DP)

Oh, didn’t recognize you were op. That club3d cable should be good.

I had a similar issue with an Asus monitor where if I turned it off after I booted and then turned it on again, it resume do properly and it went away.

I would suggest getting a DP 1.4/HBR3 cable.

Displayport has a strict spec with vendor approval past 120hz, despite what people assume.

The OS and GPU aren't the problem. That's beyond well supported.

Unfortunately no just an HDMI cable. It will get you 240hz (assuming your gpu supports it) but I had to order a DP cable.

This is the cable i got and FreeSync works great!

It's probably fine, but its best to get a VESA certified cable.

Here's one from Club3D. Here's its certification on the VESA website.

In the past I've had some trouble with non-certified cables.

This is my displayport cable I’m using. It does work for 144hz on this monitor when i’m using integrated graphics but not with the GPU. I have also tried 2 other DP cables as well.

Yes I did use DDU to do a completely clean install. I really don’t get what’s up

Make sure that in the Nvidia control panel you scroll down in the resolutions list. You might see a PC section that has the right resolution then the drop down menu on the right of the resolution options should show the higher refresh rates.

My previous monitor VG248QE had this 'issue'

Edit:
Based on their manual, maybe reinstall the driver for it at ( https://www.benq.com/en-us/support/downloads-faq/products/monitor/xl2411z/software-driver.html )

Also, according to their own XL2411Z Resolution file sheet thing here ( https://www.benq.com/en-us/support/downloads-faq/products/monitor/xl2411z/manual.html )
Displayport at 144hz 1080p should work. Though, nothing specifies what Displayport version is used.

If you suspect a issue with your DP cable I reccomend Accell or Club3d Displayport cables you can find on amazon.

Edit 2:
Accell Displayport 1.4
( https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07J9R9ZY9/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_i_uDbqDbVZ9TM2B )

Club3d Displayport 1.4
( https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0767F5DNR/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_i_2EbqDb3M4DBD7 )
