    Does anyone know the maximum refresh rate that I can output on a new STRIX SCAR II GL504GW? I just picked one up yesterday and I have an extra PG279Q monitor here, plugged it in and it locks the refresh rate to 60Hz even though it's a 144Hz G-Sync display. I can't change it anywhere in windows or the Nvidia drivers. I am running a clean install of Win10 Pro with the latest 419.35 drivers. I guess it can only push 144Hz to the built in display? I looked over the entire website and owners manual and there is nothing about the capabilities of the HDMI port anywhere.

    hdmi is connected to intel uhd630 and i don't remember the max hz capacity of the hdmi 2.0... if you want to use directly the nvidia card you should use the mini display port that enabled the rtx to drive the monitor, so you can use any refresh rate and gsync (or the new freesync over gsync mode).
