To determine the number of displays that can be connected to your card, see DisplayPort Diagnostic Information. This type of multi-display capability is made possible through the multi-stream transport feature in the DisplayPort v1.2 standard. Displays can be connected to a hub or using a daisy chain configuration. Each page contains settings for configuring different display properties, such as improving image quality, performing color correction adjustments, and adding support for additional HDTV modes.įor graphics cards that support the DisplayPort v1.2 standard, you can connect multiple DisplayPort displays to a single DisplayPort connection as long as the displays are compatible with the standard. Use the various pages in the group to control how images appear on your display. The My Digital Flat-Panelsgroup becomes available in Standard View and Advanced View if you are using a digital display (such as a monitor or digital TV) that is connected through a DVI, DisplayPort, or HDMI™ connection.Ī DisplayPort connection carries both digital and audio signal suitable for connecting to a home-theatre system.

The noise is shown here because people might want to verify for themselves that AMD doesn't know how to make help buttons link to actual help about DisplayPort displays and video cards not really working: Digital Flat-Panels (DisplayPort Monitors) The help button links to a completely useless page of nonsense about how if you have an HDMI monitor you should use an HDMI cable, and other banal and pointless noise. The messages seem to be talking about displayport display sharing: Even when this is the ONLY display attached to this video card, the native 2560x1440 WQHD option is not enabled in Windows. It appears to be written in a language that looks like English but makes no sense. The message when the thing is attached is shown here, and I can not figure it out. There's some configuration or something that I need to change to make displayport work, because this is a PC, and accidental complexity and horrendous piles of vendor-driven BS are required, unlike, say if this was a Mac. This is an early model displayport-enabled display and there's something wrong with the displayport support, it doesn't support the same displayport version that the FirePro W4100 supports.Īll the display port cables I can buy in a computer store are sub-standard.

The video card is a display-port-output-only card with 4 displayport connectors.Įven when only one monitor is attached, I can not select 2560x1440 resolution in windows 10, and the warning above is shown. The specs for the monitor state that it supports DisplayPort 1.2. On the AMD Control Center app I see the following:
The monitor has on screen controls but no settings about displayport settings or modes. This monitor has displayport and DVI inputs. Previous generation video cards with DVI outputs had no problem driving this monitor. I have discovered an infuriating limitation which is that it won't seem to drive my Dell UltraSharp U2713HM 27" monitor at its native 2560x1440 WQHD resolution. I have an AMD FirePro W4100 card and it has 4 displayport outputs on the back.
