    Solved Ryzen 5 5600G not showing maximum resolution of my Dell monitor

    Pleasure to contribute my problem case guys, and thanks for a couple of utilities I didn't know about. I like Speccy, I was using Belarc prior but Speccy shows temperatures too, and a more readable structure, I like that! Also the Driver uninstall resource looks to be a useful tool to use for...

    Solved Ryzen 5 5600G not showing maximum resolution of my Dell monitor

    OK, I received the cable. Plugged into the HDMI to DP adapter. Success, I now have 1440p 60hz mode back. So in summary, it was all down to not realising my new motherboard's DVI port was only capable of up to 1920 X 1200 mode. DVI ports need to be a dual link to achieve a higher resolution...

    Solved Ryzen 5 5600G not showing maximum resolution of my Dell monitor

    Solved Ryzen 5 5600G not showing maximum resolution of my Dell monitor

    I appreciate your troubleshooting responses, both of you. Thank you. But I have now actually found what the problem is or rather the culprit after these two days of head scratching. Turns out to be something so simple as usually is the case! It's wasn't obvious, though, I hasten to add. It had...

    Solved Ryzen 5 5600G not showing maximum resolution of my Dell monitor

    OK I used the DDU to uninstall the GPU drivers all in safe mode. I started with remnants of Nvidia that were still lingering, then AMD. Restarted, installed AMD. Same issue, no change. However, I just noticed that the Graphics card is allocated 512mb VRAM...I think that's where the problem...

    Solved Ryzen 5 5600G not showing maximum resolution of my Dell monitor

    The PSU is 500w but I can't access its brand and model right now I'm afraid. I'll redirect my documents etc onto the other ssd.

    Solved Ryzen 5 5600G not showing maximum resolution of my Dell monitor

    I installed the AMD chipset driver package after I booted up the windows which installed its own generic drivers automatically. But I uninstall all the drivers again and re-install. I don't know of DDU so I will check that out. Thanks Not sure what you mean about the Dell monitor software...

    Solved Ryzen 5 5600G not showing maximum resolution of my Dell monitor

    Update, I did have to reactivate windows with a new license...I did not notice a watermark in the corner of the desktop showing activation required! But that doesn't seem to be related to my issue one I reactivated Windows 10. So not sure what to trouble shoot next. I do have a second SSD...

    Solved Ryzen 5 5600G not showing maximum resolution of my Dell monitor

    Hi guys Prior to my little problem I upgraded my PC's motherboard, CPU and memory to a Gigabyte B550M DS3H (v1.3), Ryzen 5 5600G (using the AMD integrated graphics so no dedicated GPU used) and 16GB memory. I was fully prepared to install a newly purchased single licence Windows 10 on a new...
