Where can I get drivers? And how do I set the refresh rate about an miserably low 60hz?

You don't need drivers for this monitor, as soon as you connect it via HDMI it should be recognized. If you want it to run at a higher refresh rate that 60 Hz you have to create a custom driver using Powerstrip. You then create a custom resolution (1920X1080) and refresh rate (I suggest 72 Hz) and create the driver. Then go into advanced display settings/monitor in Windows. Click on Properties and go to the Driver tab, then you'll see update driver option. Select Browse your computer option and select the folder containing the custom driver. Save the driver in case you have to do it again in the future. This is how I got mine to run at 72 Hz and it works perfectly...

You dont need drivers for it. there are none. Also, you should be able to tune the Hz up to 72 if your video card or display software naively supports it but there are 3rd party softwares that will let you do that as well.

For 3-D Viewing I did not need a driver. Download free software called StereoPhoto Maker (google it). Open your 3-D image in StereoPhoto Maker and set they playback to Row Interlaced using the F4 button. If the screen is set to the proper resolution 1920 x 1080 and the 3D Button on the bottom edge of the screen is turned on, then you should see it in 3D. Don't know about the refresh rate change.

You need to manually set your Window's output to 144hz, this is NOT automatic. You do this by: Right-Click on empty space on Desktop --> Screen resolution --> Advanced Settings -->Monitor Tab --> Drop down for 'Refresh Rate' --> Set to 144hz. Apply

Im running 1920x1200 at 60hz on the Generic PNP drivers running Win 7 64bit. Honestly I never even checked on what driver I was running until now. It works flawlesly. Has since the day Win7 came out and I installed it. Before actually when I was running Win7RC.

Previous answer is wrong. The refresh rate is 60 Hz. 1920 x 1080 is preferred because the resolution lines up with the pixels. If the font, etc., is too small, Windoze can adjust itself for you. There is not another refresh rate available with this resolution. The power adapter may well support 50Hz, but that is a whole different thing. Nice monitor. I really like mine.

Probably you don't need a new one (although some older cards and low powered stuff might not handle it). Since your card has mini display port I;d guess that it probably can handle it though. What graphics card?You want one that does UHD at 60Hz over DisplayPort.

I'm having the exact same problem when trying 1080p. It lets me go to 144hz when not in HD though.

Just go on evga or NIVIDA web site (browse or on package box) and download drivers and menu if is there.

Neither is it PLS, nor does it have a single DP. You may only connect via a good DVI-D cable, but then you can overclock to 2560x1440 @ 120hz (+-20hz about, depending on your luck) I bought this exact model before and unless they totally changed it, the description is plainly misleading/wrong now.

Hi friend,I have the device applicable for 60Hz.If you need,please leave me a message while buying.This message is very important.Have a nice day!Best Regards

You should be able to download updated drivers from http://us.acer.com/ac/en/US/content/drivers

they are all answering in generalities and unfortunately its irrelevant, this and quite a few of the best plasmas this year suffer from just unacceptable input lag, the f8500 to a horrendous degree, it can be tamed to much more moderate levels by using a pc mode trick but its less than optimal for many reasons, but i suggest checking with avsforums and places with very in depth accounts to fully get a understanding of all the options. Actually i am just seeing you found displaylag.com and their database so this may not be of any use to you, oh well. Good luck

Connecting the Nvidia 3d on HDMI Cables is not recommended because it will not deliver the 120 hz, you wont enjoy it at all

60Hz on the display port... but the NVidia card in my notebook pc could only handle 30.

I have done this @ 30mhz but not 60. I have a Monoprice 4K monitor now and it can't drive it at 60mhz

I seriously doubt there are any windows 8 drivers for such an old monitor. Usually windows is pretty good about finding correct drivers but generally this type of monitor shouldn't need any special drivers. I don't have mine anymore but I seem to remember it working just fine with win7 so I would try using those drivers.

Okay, so I've spent at least the past hour trying to figure this out, and I finally give up. I had a few problems with Mac and decided to give Windows a try first. Needless to say, I never made it far enough to try it on Mac. Keep in mind, I'm not sure how a Radeon card (and it's drivers) would handle this, as I only have an Nvidia card. So after creating custom resolutions and messing with scaling in the Nvidia Control Panel, I finally got both "displays" to look and function right. The Nvidia control panel reports that I have two 1720x1440 monitors @60Hz, which is the first half of the battle. After I got that far I tried to use Nvidia surround. The Nvidia Surround configuration tool would not let me properly choose anything other than 6880x1440@50Hz. Most likely this is because the drivers detect these "screens" as two 3440x1440@50Hz displays, which is why I had to mess with scaling and custom resolutions originally (something I would consider a design flaw). So basically, the closest I got was running both of these 1720x1440@40Hz "displays" side by side, behaving as you would expect. I'm very skeptical that these are running at 60Hz too. Everything says that it's running at 60Hz, but the fact that I couldn't put them into 60Hz without making a custom refresh rate makes me question whether or not it's really running at 60Hz. Hope that helps.

Under the advanced settings on my computer, the refresh rate is set to 60Hz, which is also the only option. I'm running an ASUS GTX670, so I'm guessing that it knows best. Aside from that, I couldn't really tell you. This is with ASUS' video card driver v. 9.18.13.37888 (5/19/14) and the Microsoft driver for Generic PnP driver v. 6.3.9600.16384. I don't know that ASUS has a proprietary driver for the VS229H-P, and Microsoft isn't that great with actually checking for other companies' drivers at this basic of a level -- I just haven't looked for myself because I haven't found the need to check (M$'s driver is dated 6/21/2006, which is absolutely ancient as far as drivers go).
