I think your requirement is quite insufficient and vague, because a high IQ alone doesn't grant a lot of other very important aspects of a relationship.
The only aspect you're taking in account is the possibility to share with her technical contents and possibly your hobbies, the way you live them and the way you reason. You can get this already with a friend without needing to get a girlfriend, though. And while the lack of contents to share can be a deal breaker (as it is for myself too), many other things can collapse in a relationship.
A high IQ girl doesn't grant to be also: • empathetic, to understand your problems and side during arguments; • mature, to not get overtriggered about everything and paranoid and to face problems with pragmatism; • not-too-egocentric, to grant a mutual respect; • trustful, to not get overcontrolling; • independent, to not get clingy/needy/sticky as hell; • cultured, to have always contents to discuss; • open-minded, to not clash with your opinions about society and politics.
And many, many, many others. You'll see how much you'll become more selective about required traits, one ex after the other, that will make you understand what you -don't- want, in a girl. ;)
I can absolutely grant you that two partners with high IQ don't grant anything, because I have a higher IQ than average (I was born like that, I was that kind of special kids who get examined and get special treatments), and even, I have generally male attitudes and interests (and male friends only, as consequence), so I should seem really matching with male nerds, right? I have also a very low emotional intelligence, not a surprise. Well, my partners were all gifted as well about IQ, as I couldn't stand to not be able to share my world with a partner, so I naturally filtered them. Guess what, none of them lasted more than 1 year and I got pissed of them already after 2 months. They ended all because of completely different reasons than IQ or boredom, though. Even, one of them, the only one who rejected me, who is also the one with higher IQ I ever met, preferred girls who were exceptionally empty, simple, not intelligent, unaware, ingenuous and basic. That proves the matching of IQs is not that needed apparently, but that was only him.
Said that, after 8-9 stories in my life that didn't work, you can imagine what a shitload of requirements I would be able to list now. ;p I wrote them to a friend recently because he really really wanted to know that, and I wrote a wall of text of them. Longer than this one, yeah. Not gonna write them here again, although some are already hinted in this post.
Ehhh bless those simple girls who only require a banana... Or those who claim to demand a guy who is protective, sensible, strong, mature, cultured, and then fall for the most toxic/narcissist/cheap/failed guys on the market. Bless, bless, bless those simple souls.
I won’t judge you for that since I’m a 147 😅 but to each his/her own. Not saying a high IQ is a bad thing, I like a smart guy, but it’s not everything to me. He needs some everyday wisdom too. Don’t tell me they always have both because Albert Einstein couldn’t even tie his own shoe but look at all that he discovered.
To answer the question more directly, I love what the other girl said about brutal honesty and not trying to chicken out over telling the truth. So honesty is a big one for me. Don’t lie to me, I don’t care what it’s about. The smallest lie or half-truth will get you dumped and I won’t care.
He needs to be open - not just with the truth but just in conversation. You’d be surprised how many people can’t communicate.
I like a hard-working man, one who would do anything to provide for a family. Doesn’t mean he’s gonna be the only one working or that I won’t make more than him, but the characteristic shows responsibility. He needs to be responsible.
I like a dominant man. He establishes his role and is firm about it.
He can’t be stuck-up. Be confident and nice or go home.
I like a religious man who’s in touch with his spirit and emotions, so passionate.
As far as personality, that’s pretty much all I demand.
As long as we can talk to each other like a normal relationship personality doesn't matter to me.
u So before u are allowed to get to know them u would have them take a iq test?

I am pretty sure most with an average IQ can do basic calculus if they sit down and learn it xD I studied a STEM field (where you need complex math) and some of my fellow students were not that sharp with math. But they were still into the science so they just worked harder on that part.
To your actual question:
I value honesty very highly. I prefer someone who is brutally honest over hiding from conflicts.
Someone who takes initiative; can take care of himself (for example ask for help if needed) and would also take care and responsibility in making the relationship work out.
Wow. Good luck with that. 😂😂
