I'm trying to run two monitors from a single Displayport (DP) output on a Radeon R5 240 with a DP hub. One is the Z32x Dreamcolor and the other is a Dell Ultrasharp 34in. I had to install the original Dell drivers for the GPU as the latest software from AMD is a pale comparison to the older CCC software. The original AMD software had a Displayport monitor that shows the Z32x using 94% of the DP bandwidth, changing any of the settings on the monitor doesn't seem to affect the amount of bandwidth that it uses. Is there a setting that I am missing with the Z32x that will allow me to drop its bandwidth usage below 50%? by comparison the 34" uses 46% of the bandwith when plugged in.

Do you use the Z32X with a 4K definition or 60Hz frequency?

HP Recommended

Yes, we use the z32x at the recomended settings. We did try lowering the resolution and/or changing the Hz but that didn't seem to affect the bandwith usage at all. We did end up buying new video cards to bypass the issue.

What is the model of your new graphic card?

HP Recommended

We purchased the Quadro K1200 4GB (VCQK1200DP-PB).

a good choice to use the Z32X I believe!
