Re: cant set refresh rate above 120hz when using nvidia proprietary driver

I can confirm about the nvidia-modeset.hdmi_deepcolor=0

I was scorching the internet to find a solution. found none. switched to nvidia 550. But with this patch its working perfectly.

Note:
I was previously using the open-source Nouveau driver, so I switched to the proprietary NVIDIA driver by running:

sudo pacman -S nvidia nvidia-utils lib32-nvidia-utils
From the package list, I selected 20) linux612-nvidia because my kernel version is 6.12.28-1-MANJARO (checked via uname -r).
