Hi everyone, I'm trying to figure this out. I have an MSI B550M Pro-VDH WiFi board with a Ryzen 5 4600G processor. It comes with Windows 11 Pro, two monitors, and three output ports: one display port, one HDMI, and one VGA. I've connected the display port to a 2K monitor and it works perfectly. However, when I use VGA with a 1080p monitor or HDMI with another 1080p monitor, both only support 720p. That's strange. Is this normal? Are there any ways to fix this without getting a dedicated graphics card? I'm on a tight budget. Any advice? Thanks!

Sure, clarify this for you. The actual maximum resolution you can achieve varies based on your CPU and the refresh rate you choose. The figures in the manual are approximate values given by the chipset. If your CPU doesn’t support the combined resolution of all three displays at the selected frequency, the results will be limited. You might want to try disconnecting the DisplayPort monitor to see if performance improves elsewhere. Also, note that a monitor running at 200Hz can influence the overall output. Just let someone verify this, as it’s something I’m not entirely certain about.
