Q: What is the refresh Rate for this monitor and how many HDMI ports it have?

A: I consulted a manual downloaded from Dell's website to obtain the information below. The range given for the refresh rate is 48 Hz to 75 Hz (automatic). The maximum refresh rate available for each type of connection was listed as follows under under "Maximum preset resolution": 1920 x 1080 at 60 Hz for VGA 1920 x 1080 at 75 Hz for HDMI 1.4 3840 x 2160 at 60Hz for HDMI 2.0 Note that the single HDMI port on this monitor is compatible with both HDMI 1.4 and HDMI 2.0.

Q: Can this monitor be set up as a second monitor to a Mac?

A: Yes, this can be used as a secondary display.

Q: I’m having a difficult time connecting my PS4 Pro to this monitor. I have a 2.0 hdmi cable but everytime I try to load it I either get “No HDMI signal from your device.” Or its a black screen. I’ve tried safe mode but I don’t get an option for 420 res.

A: I’m still having trouble. I tried a two different cords. I’ve gotten it to work before as I only used this monitor but since getting a new place and switching to a tv for the living room I can’t get it back for FPS :(. I keep getting that same error over and over again.

Q: Where are the speakers and if there are not any why didnt someone at Best Buy recommend some at the time of purchase?

A: It is falsely advertised. Description says it has speakers but it does not. Best Buy you need to update the description.
