I have purchased this motherboard. I get a sharp picture via HDMI on my 49" Samsung LS49A950UIUXEN monitor and also on a Dell UltraSharp U4919DW. I do NOT get a picture via USB-C on either monitor. Do I need a special setting in the BIOS? What experiences have you had with the USB-C connection?

Question

Accepted Answer

However, all USB-C ports cannot do everything. Just because the mainboard has a USB-C port, a video signal does not necessarily come out of it. The USB-C port on this mainboard, as on pretty much every other mainboard, cannot output a video signal. The specs for the USB-C port only say "1x USB 3.2 Gen 2x2 20Gbps Type-C port on the back panel".

Answer

It seems that you have plugged the screen into the mainboard instead of the graphics card. This is located under the mainboard connections. However, the graphics card usually only has HDMI and display port connections.
