I've had it there before, but I now run a amd 7850, and since I upgraded the video card, my monitor will not go above 60hz. It isn't even giving me the option. Somebody please help meeeeee

Is it connected via displayport, HDMI 1.4 or a dual-link DVI cable?

Look up the different connectors and see which cable is connected to what port (both ends).

If it doesn't have all 24 connectors it's not dual link.

I'm not sure what you mean. The cable I'm using is dual link dvi

Does your card have two stacked DVI outputs? If so, one is single link and the other is dual link. The one closest to the PCB (in-line with the HDMI/DP outputs) should be the dual link port.
