| I have a Windows computer with a discrete (internal) NVIDIA Quadro dGPU, and the external NViDIA GeForce or Titan eGPU is not recognized. | Jun-21-21 |
| If you have an NVIDIA Quadro dGPU, then the installed driver will automatically support NVIDIA Quadro eGPUs.
If you have an NVIDIA Quadro dGPU, and you are using an NVIDIA GeForce or Titan eGPU, then you may need to:
Step 1:
Uninstall the Quadro dGPU driver and install the GeForce eGPU driver, which will support both an external GeForce or Titan GPU and the internal Quadro dGPU. Download and run the latest Driver Display Uninstaller from Wagnardsoft.
Step 2:
Install the latest NVIDIA desktop driver for the GeForce or Titan GPU. |

| My 4K display is connecting only at 30Hz. Why I can't set it to 60Hz? | Jun-21-21 |
| Your display may not support 60Hz. Your display might require a firmware update to support 60Hz operation. Contact the maker of your display for details.
Many early 4K displays use Multi-Stream Transport (MST) to achieve 4k @ 60Hz. Follow these steps to use the display's built-in controls to enable this feature:
Sharp PN-K321: Choose Menu > Setup > DisplayPort STREAM > MST > SET
ASUS PQ321Q: Choose OSD menu > Setup > DisplayPort Stream
Dell UP2414Q and UP3214Q: Choose Menu > Display Setting > DisplayPort 1.2 > Enable
Panasonic TC-L65WT600: Choose Menu > Display Port Settings > Stream Setting > Auto
Other DisplayPort displays: check with the display manufacturer for compatibility information.
HDMI:
Make sure the HDMI cable you are using is a Premium High-Speed HDMI Cable certified by HDMI.org.
If you are trying to connect at 4k@60Hz via HDMI 2.0, you may have to set the color depth to 8-bit at 4:4:4, 10-bit at 4:2:2, or 12-bit at 4:2:0, or you may exceed the HDMI 2.0 bandwidth. A few 4K TVs (2017 Element Fire TV and 2017 LeEco Super 4, for example) don't support 4K@60Hz@4:4:4 at all.
For connecting to a 4K TV, you may need make a custom color resolution. Set resolution to 3840x2160 at 60Hz and set Timing standard to CVT-RB (reduced blanking). Some TVs require you to turn on "UHD Color" or "Advanced" or "Enhanced" setting manually in the picture settings for the HDMI port. |
