Hey guys,
So, I recently purchased a Dell Ultrasharp U2713H monitor for a very good deal. Literally, half off the price! So, it was, like, a no-brainer, for me, to get on it before it disappears from the rack. And, since I'm coming from an Asus PA238Q 1080P monitor, the extra resolution would be upgrade enough. But, I still want the extra color space that this monitor is supposedly capable of.
So, is there something I am missing to unleash this beast?
About This Mac >System Report >Graphics/Displays reports the monitor as being only 32-bit!
When the monitor is capable of 30-bits, or 1.7 billion colors! Or, what, I think, is known as wide-gamut color space.
The monitor is connected to an RX 460 in my mid-2010 Mac Pro running the latest MacOS Sierra....
I've googled, searched, re-searched about it for half a day now. And, haven't come across a satisfactory answer or solution.
Is it the RX 460? It's not capable of it?
Thanks in advance!
PS--A weird anomaly is that when connected to either miniDP or DP port, MacOS reports the monitor as a television. I didn't care about this with my PA238Q because I just didn't. But, now that I got this supposedly wide-gamut monitor, I kinda, care about MacOS mis-reporting it as a mere "Television."
PSS--I have it on DVI now to avoid said "weird anomaly." But, still doesn't resolve the 30-bit issue...
