Answered by Antonio Sutton

To get 75 Hz on your monitor, follow these steps:

1. Click on the Start button located at the bottom left corner of your screen.
2. From the Start menu, point your cursor to the Settings option and click on it.
3. In the Settings menu, you will find the Control Panel option. Click on it to open the Control Panel.
4. Within the Control Panel, locate and double-click on the Display option. This will open the Display Properties window.
5. In the Display Properties window, navigate to the Settings tab and click on it to access the display settings.
6. Once you are in the Settings tab, click on the Advanced button. This will open the Advanced Display Properties window.
7. Within the Advanced Display Properties window, you will find several tabs. Click on the Monitor tab to proceed.
8. In the Monitor tab, you will see a section labeled “Monitor Settings” or “Default Monitor Properties.”
9. Look for the option to adjust the refresh rate or vertical frequency of your monitor. This option may vary depending on your graphics card and monitor model.
10. Adjust the refresh rate to 75 Hz or higher, depending on the capabilities of your monitor. Some monitors may support even higher refresh rates, such as 120 Hz or 144 Hz.
11. Once you have selected the desired refresh rate, click on the Apply button to save the changes.
12. A confirmation dialog box may appear asking if you want to keep the new settings. Click Yes to confirm.
13. click on the OK button to close the Advanced Display Properties window.
14. You have now successfully set your monitor’s refresh rate to 75 Hz or higher.

It is important to note that not all monitors support high refresh rates, so make sure to check your monitor specifications or user manual to ensure it can handle the desired refresh rate. Additionally, your graphics card and its drivers must also support the selected refresh rate.

Having a higher refresh rate can provide smoother motion and reduce screen tearing, especially during gaming or fast-paced activities. However, keep in mind that you may need a capable graphics card and appropriate cables (such as DisplayPort or HDMI 2.0) to fully utilize higher refresh rates.
