Alder Lake N100 100 hz?

Hello!

I have a Samsung S5 Series Ultrawide Monitor (2024) and my Windows 11 minipc has an Alder Lake N100 processor. I cannot get the monitor to operate at 100 hz no matter what I try. Have tried display settings, the Intel Graphics Command Center, using a HDMI to DisplayPort adapter cable, and have ordered a new HDMI 1.2 cable to try. I also installed the latest Intel driver for the CPU. The monitor driver is S34CG50. When I try the Custom Resolution Utility, in established resolutions, it only goes up to 75 hz, and I can only get mine to 59.972 hz. 

is there something I can do to fix this? I know this monitor can do 100 hz because an OSD message comes up; saying it can run at optimal res. of 100 hz for 3440X1440. 

Thanks

Scott

Hello N1IA,

 

It seems that you are having issues with the refresh rate of your monitor. Please share the information below to help me come up with a resolution to this.

 

1. Were you able to use the monitor on 100Hz previously?

2. Did you make any recent changes to the system?

3. Have you tried a direct connection (ex. HDMI to HDMI)?

 

Please also be advised that we do not recommend using any kind of adapters and cannot guarantee 3rd party products/adapters will work as expected.

 

For reference: Using Video Cable Adapters, Splitters and/or Docking Stations in Computers not Manufactured by Intel

 

Additionally, to have a better understanding of your system configuration and components please generate System Support Utility (SSU) report. Please follow instructions here and send the report - How to get the Intel® System Support Utility Logs on Windows*

 

I hope to hear from you soon!
