Why does the "Link Rate (current)" in my GPU-Z show 60G?

I'm using a Samsung 57-inch monitor set to DP 2.1 signal, a 2-meter 80Gbps DP cable from Silkland, and a 5090 graphics card. In GPU-Z, it shows this, and the current link rate is somehow 615098.1Gbps.
The system does show the screen resolution as 7680x2160 at 240Hz, which is correct. Could it be an issue with the DP cable quality? Should I request a replacement?

Same issue for me but with a 5080.

I messaged W1zzard and they said the info in GPU-Z is just from the Nvidia API, so this is an Nvidia issue somewhere. I've raised it on the Nvidia forums here, upvoting it might help it get some traction: https://www.nvidia.com/en-us/geforc...57628-feedback-thread-released-43025/3530278/

Out of interest, do you have the issues described here with this monitor?

No, I didn't experience the monitor issues you mentioned. The refresh rate and resolution are correct, so I think it's fine. However, with the 576.28 GPU driver, I had some random D3D crashes while playing MHWilds. There was also a brief screen flash every time right before the lock screen appeared or just before the PC shut down. So I rolled back to 572.83, and everything's been working well since.
 
Sorry, a 4kUW 240hz monitor? although what color depth is it?
 
same issue here using a AORUS 5090 MASTER with LG 32GX870A-B AND DP54 or DP80 Silkland Certified CABLE, nothing works. Showing me 10gbit link instead 13.5 as HBR13.5
