I have a 34" Odyssey G8 G85SB display that I'm using with 2 computers. The first computer is a M2 MacMini connected to the USB-C/PD port, and the second is an HP Elitebook connected to the microHDMI port.
I have set the Game Mode to both Off and Auto. I do not game. I just use the monitor for office-type work. However, Game Mode keeps getting enabled. When that happens, the other USB-C port switches to High Resolution. I have a USB hub connected to that port that I use to power a light bar, charge my iPad, and connect my web cam. When it switches to High Resolution, it often will not power any devices. So, I have go back and turn Game Mode off and switch USB-C to High Speed.
I've also noticed that sometimes just the USB-C setting gets switched to High Resolution while the Game Mode will remain off. In that case, I still have issues with devices connected to the USB-C hub on the other USB-C port.
Is there something I have to do to keep Game Mode off and for USB-C to remain High-Speed?
Out of curiosity, what is the benefit of having the other USB-C port (not the one with 65W Power Delivery) set to High Resolution? Can another device be connected to this port for video?
responding to mention that I am experiencing the same issues. it's thanks to this user that I can now make sure my laptop charges when connected to the monitor by turning off game mode and making sure high speed data transfer is enabled instead of high resolution in the settings.
is there no way to program the settings of the monitor based on connection type made?
