QuestionWhat is the refresh Rate for this monitor and how many HDMI ports it have?
Asked 8 years ago by sam.
- Answer 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.

QuestionI’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.
Asked 6 years ago by HunterJHamilton.
- Answer 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.

QuestionCan this monitor be lowered on the stand or is it one height?
Asked 8 years ago by Linda.
- Answer It is not adjustable but I find it very comfortable how it is. Sitting straight, my eyes are level with near the top of the monitor, so I'm neither looking up nor down to see what is on the screen.

Questionwhich monitor is better this one or dell27"se2717hx?
Asked 8 years ago by hokie.
- Answer It largely depends on what features you want for the monitor and what you are willing to pay for them. The tech specs for their panels are about the same, and both have AMD FreeSync. Their stands look different, but the stands have the same ergonomic drawbacks, there is only a tilt adjustment. There is no VESA mount on either monitor, so wall mounts or third-party stands can't be used. Both monitors have one VGA connection and one HDMI connection. Neither monitor includes built-in speakers. The S2718HN has a narrower bezel. Its HDMI connection is capable of accepting both HDMI 2.0 input and HDMI 1.4 input. It accepts UHD (3840x2160) input, but it is not a UHD monitor with true HDR capability. The S2718HN scales 3840x2160 to 1920x1080 and uses the Dell HDR feature for HDR10 content. The S2718HN includes an audio line-out port to connect speakers. The SE2717HX's HDMI connection just supports HDMI 1.4 input. It doesn't have an audio line-out port. On the other hand, the SE2717HX is less expensive than the S2718HN.
