  1. Can’t get same resolution on identical dual monitors


    Hello, I’m having exact same issue as the one linked below with the same monitor model. Each monitor works fine alone at highest resolution regardless of hdmi or displayport connection. It’s when I set up dual monitor with extend display that problem emerges. 2nd monitor does not allow 2560x1440, and does not go above 24hz. Happens regardless of hdmi or displayport. Trying to connect via Dell docking station.

    updated monitor driver and rebooted, and problem persisted.

    2x Identical Monitors, Resolution stretched on one.

    please list:

    resolution of all monitors (native, set in windows)

    connection methods per monitor (DVI, HDMI etc)

    what settings you've adjusted - resizing, HDMI scaling, etc. (on monitor/video drivers as applicable)
