xrandr shows my maximum refresh rate as 144.01 (I've been using 144 in windows with no problem) but when I try to do xrandr -s 1920x1080 -r 144 (or 144.01) i get size not allowed, if I do the longer version xrandr --auto --output DVI-D-2 --mode 1920x1080 --rate 144 my screen just goes black and I have to type xrandr -s 1920x1080 -r 100 to get it to come back, any ideas?

Welcome to Arch Linux.
For starters, what are the output of xrandr with no command line parameters?

That looks rational to me. Based on that, I'd have expected it to work.
My system does not have DVI outputs, so I'll leave this to someone who does.
BTW, please use BBCode code tags around program output and file dumps; your readers will appreciate you.

xrandr --auto --output DVI-D-2 --mode 1920x1080 --rate 144
Why would you mix auto with a specific mode?
First try
xrandr --output DVI-D-2 --auto
1920x1080@144Hz should actually be the automatic choice (indicated by the "+")
Next: does the monitor just get dark or does it actually indicate a signal loss (and enter suspend mode or so)?
Offline
xrandr --output DVI-D-2 --auto
puts my monitor into suspend mode, and yeah turns off, not just dark screen.

Seems like the monitor doesn't like the generated signal.
Please paste the xorg log and the exact monitor model (bonus point if you can provide a tech sheet ;-)

Sorry pretty new, where can I find the xorg log? Monitor is a cheap korean one I got off ebay a few years ago, never had any problems with it under windows: http://www.ebay.com/itm/X-star-DP2414LE … SwgQ9Vn4lZ
