Re: USB-C monitors
Just be aware that if you are looking at 4k monitors ; you will be likely be limited to 30hz refresh rate via most adaptors using DP mode over USBC. Thunderbolt3 and 4 can do 4kp60 as can DP 1.4 - but there are various factors involved including the adaptors SoC, your GPU/Motherboard output. Things can definitely go pear shaped if you are doing anything over 1080p. On Mon, Sep 20, 2021 at 4:25 AM Paco Esteban wrote: > Hi, > > My experience is the same as Peter's.

Re: USB-C monitors
Hi, My experience is the same as Peter's. No problem with various adapters USB-C to HDMI, in my case at 4k both 30Hz and 60Hz. I had no luck with DisplayPort output on a couple of docking stations. Will try next week with a direct cable USB-C to DP and will be able to report on that. Cheers, Paco. On Sun, 19 Sep 2021, Jan Betlach wrote: > Hi Peter, > > thanks for your prompt response.

Re: USB-C monitors
Hi Peter, thanks for your prompt response. I believe it should work (it is actually a usb-c monitor, no usb-c to hdmi adapter needed). Nevertheless I'll just take my laptop to the store and try it, just to be sure it really works.

Re: USB-C monitors
Yes, I've used that with a couple different monitors, and a handful of usb-c to hdmi adapters. All worked fine, and behaved just like normal hdmi/dvi/vga monitors. Power delivery and usb also worked as expected.

USB-C monitors
Hi guys, I am on -current and considering to purchase a USB-C monitor (power delivery to my Thinkpad over one cable). Do USB-C dislplays work on OpenBSD? Thanks in advance Jan
