How to Fix if you Can't get 120hz on your PS5 Pro Console with TV (Easy Tutorial)
4If you're unable to get 120Hz on your PS5 Pro when connected to your TV, here are some steps to troubleshoot and resolve the issue:
1. Check Your TV's 120Hz Capability
Ensure your TV actually supports 120Hz at the resolution you're aiming for (usually 1080p or 4K). Some TVs only support 120Hz at 1080p, not 4K.
Refer to your TV's manual or specifications to confirm its 120Hz support and any specific HDMI ports that may be required to enable it.
2. Use the Right HDMI Port and Cable
Most TVs have specific HDMI ports that support higher refresh rates, typically labeled as "HDMI 2.1" or “120Hz.” Use one of these ports.
Ensure you are using an HDMI 2.1 cable, which comes with the PS5 Pro and supports 4K at 120Hz.
3. Enable 120Hz on the TV
Go to your TV’s settings menu and look for options like “HDMI Enhanced Mode” or “Game Mode,” as enabling these settings can allow 120Hz.
Some TVs have a VRR (Variable Refresh Rate) or Motion settings that can impact high refresh rates, so verify these settings as well.
4. Check PS5 Video Output Settings
On your PS5 Pro, go to Settings - Screen and Video - Video Output.
Set Resolution to Automatic (or choose 4K if applicable).
Set Enable 120Hz Output to Automatic.
Try selecting 4K Transfer Rate to -1 or -2, as some TVs have trouble with the default setting.
5. Update Firmware on Both Devices
Ensure both your PS5 Pro and TV firmware are up to date, as updates can improve compatibility with new features like 120Hz support.
6. Disable Unnecessary Video Options
Some TVs have features like HDR, ALLM (Auto Low Latency Mode), or Motion Interpolation that can interfere with 120Hz. Try turning these off temporarily to see if 120Hz becomes available.
7. Check the Game’s Refresh Rate Capabilities
Not all games support 120Hz; check the game’s settings to ensure it can be run in a high refresh mode. Games with 120Hz support typically have an option to enable a "Performance" mode.
