[Solved] Hyprland can't use any refresh rate higher than 60

I have 2 monitors
hyprctl monitors:

Monitor DVI-D-1 (ID 1):

the primary monitor is the HDMI one,placed on the right
the secondary monitor is the DVI one,placed on the left of the HDMI one

When i try to change the refresh rate in hyprland config file,or in wlr-randr,it always change back on 60Hz
there is nothing in dmesg and journal
but i will put it here

(base)   dynamo   ~ git-[ master]-  sudo journalctl -b | curl -F 'file=@-' 0x0.st

(base)   dynamo   ~ git-[ master]-  sudo dmesg | curl -F 'file=@-' 0x0.st
http://0x0.st/Xdi8.txt

my hyprland monitor config part:

# MONITOR CONFIG
# 将HDMI主屏放置在右侧，位置设置为0x0
monitor = HDMI-A-1,1920x1080@74.97,0x0,1

# 将DVI副屏放置在左侧，位置设置为-1920x0
monitor = DVI-D-1,1920x1080,-1920x0,1
# monitor=,addreserved, 0, 0, 0, 0 # Custom reserved area

# HDMI port: mirror display. To see device name, use `hyprctl monitors`
# monitor=HDMI-A-1,1920x1080@60,1920x0,1,mirror,eDP-1

Monitor HDMI-A-2 (ID 0):

monitor = HDMI-A-1,1920x1080@74.97,0x0,1

Otherwise mayhaps also post the rest of the config.

Fyi, the system journal includes the complete dmesg anyway.

end-4 dotfile[illogical impulse]:https://github.com/end-4/dots-hyprland

You do understand that you're configuring the wrong output because HDMI-A-2 and HDMI-A-1 are not the same?

seth is right, you're configuring the wrong video output.

hyprctl monitors

will list all detected displays in hyprland you need to fix the output then it should be fine. Unless of course, the dotfiles you used are calling in scripts that set defaults to other conf files.

My hyprland setup has two monitors with refresh rates over 60Hz, zero issues.

i guess maybe i'm blind
strange that my HDMI cable is plugged into the first slot but it says HDMI-A-2,i configured HDMI-A-1 in my hyprland config as 74.97Hz
I will see what happen if i change HDMI-A-1 into HDMI-A-2
