Display refresh rate reverts back to 144hz after turning off the display

Through amdgpu_top several modes are available, with 1440x3440@159.96 being the preferred

however after turning on/off the display, it reverts to 144hz

how can I make 160hz the default ? kde settings shows "A new output has been added. Settings have been reloaded" when this happens; and the previous 160hz is saved "for any display arrangement"
