I have a 60 Hz monitor, but Gnome 40 settings only allows 49.99 Hz (and 29.99 Hz). I'm running Wayland, obviously.
Why is that?
Gnome's animations don't feel smooth either, can that be related?
It's quite a big monitor with 3440 × 1440 px², and in another older question https://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/444055/how-to-force-60-hz-in-1366x768-despite-kernel-bug-after-kernel-4-13 it states that there's a kernel bug that limits refresh rate on high resolutions due to power savings with Xorg. Might this still be relevant and related?
I'm on a Lenovo T470s with Intel Corporation HD Graphics 620 (rev 02).
