Dell D6000 HiDPI

Nickbec · 12-18-2024, 04:06 PM

Hi, I am new to this so apologies if its been answered elsewhere. I have a Macbook M2 with 2 Dell 1080p monitors. I bought the D6000 to connect the 2nd monitor. I have monitor 1 connected directly to Macbook via thunderbolt port and I am using SwitchResX to get a 1980x1080 HiDPI resolution. As the 2nd monitor is connected via the D6000, the HiDPI option is not available and the screen resolution is terrible. Is there a workaround for this? Thanks!

Hi,

I have the almost same problem, and I might be able to help you.

I have two identical qhd 24" lenovo p24h-10 screens. Both are connected to the d6000. However, one is connected with displayPort and the other via HDMI.

The screen connected over HDMI can show HIDPI resolutions while the other can't. And that pisses me off. (please, someone know why, help me)

But try to connect your screen with the HDMI port and you will (probably) unlock the HIDPI setting.
