Port display over long distances
Port display over long distances
You're facing a common issue with HDMI connections to large displays. It sounds like your setup is pushing the limits of your current HDMI cable and port. Here are some options:
- Consider switching to a DisplayPort connection if possible, as it supports higher resolutions and refresh rates.
- Look for a high-quality HDMI 2.0 or later cable that supports 4K at higher resolutions and refresh rates.
- If you're set on using HDMI, ensure your TV is compatible with the maximum supported resolution and refresh rate.
- Check if your Alienware model supports external HDMI ports; some newer models have better connectivity options.
- If budget allows, a dedicated HDMI 2.0 to DisplayPort adapter might be worth the investment.
For that length you might have to purchase an optical one... but that's quite costly.
