What works & limitations

  • Outputs 4K120 signal correctly over HDMI 2.1 or DisplayPort 1.4
  • Runs older or less-demanding titles at 4K near 120fps
  • Works well as a 4K productivity or secondary display at 120Hz
  • Cannot sustain 120fps at 4K in modern AAA titles at high settings
  • Ray tracing at 4K reduces frame rates well below 60fps
  • The RTX 3060 has 12GB VRAM which helps at 4K, but GPU compute limits sustained 4K120 in demanding games
  • Reducing shadow, ray tracing, and ambient occlusion settings can push performance closer to 120fps
  • This is a performance ceiling, not a connectivity or signal issue
