It's possibly something to do with your HDMI cable maybe. Not all cables are built the same. Are you sure it's a HDMI 2.1 cable?

The easiest fix would be to get a display port cable instead of HDMI. HDMI has bandwidth issues so it can't support as high resolution and high refresh rate output. (Unless you're using HDMI 2.1, but I see online that even this has some issues)
If that isn't an option or doesn't work, then I'm not sure. I know windows does some weird things behind the scenes to get higher numbers to work without fully supporting it. I read once about them reducing the colour space to increase the fps? I think it's chroma sampling. It might be that windows is downsampling to get it to run which ruins some of the image quality. You should be able to check that on windows colour settings.

SuperGFX Broke Bazzite, need help recovering
I think I fixed it? For now I'll mark as fixed.
Fix:
Boot into recovery mode and run:
systemctl start supergfxd
supergfxctl -m Hybrid
It seems to be working, but need to do more testing.
In case you can't even get into recovery mode or get TTY, force reboot 3-4 times and it'll go into the OS somehow/get you access to TTY. Just run the above commands and it should work.
The true solution: don't ever use supergfx from the UI. It breaks things. The cli can handle it without issues it looks like from my testing.3 replies
