i need some help in figuring out what is the supported modes for HDMI port. i am running a cable from laptop USB C port to monitor HDMI port. Max supported resolution comes to 1440p 60Hz. not able to set to 1440p 120hz.

i am using the below cable

may be the conversion it self if the problem. I am using dpi and have used HDMI previously. and 120hz was no issue for me.
 
As mentioned in the other thread, the HDMI port of LG monitors have the restriction, probably because they don't want to spend extra on a higher-end HDMI module and expect you to use DP.

But my 32GK650F still supports 100 Hz, so that should still be possible with the correct setting. The cable is not the issue.
