Can the USB-C port charge my laptop?

Troubleshooting

Refresh rate capped at 60Hz

Ensure you are using a DisplayPort cable and have set the correct refresh rate in your Windows Display Settings or GPU Control Panel.

Screen tearing during gaming

Enable Adaptive-Sync in the monitor's On-Screen Display (OSD) menu and confirm it is enabled in your graphics driver settings.

No audio from internal speakers

Check the OS sound settings to ensure the 'Z-Edge' output is selected as the default playback device.

Pros and Cons

  • High 144Hz refresh rate provides smooth performance for competitive players
  • IPS panel ensures excellent color reproduction and wide viewing angles
  • Highly adjustable ergonomic stand supports tilt, swivel, and height changes
  • Supports VESA 100x100mm mounting for custom arm setups

Setup, Compatibility & Care

When setting up the UG40S, ensure your desk is sturdy enough to hold the monitor's weight and footprint. Assembly begins by attaching the ergonomic stand to the rear mounting point or using a VESA 100x100mm mount. To maintain peak performance, use a high-quality DisplayPort cable for 144Hz output; check your specific graphics card settings to ensure the monitor is set to the correct refresh rate within the OS display properties. To clean the screen, use only a dry, soft microfiber cloth; avoid using water, alcohol, or harsh chemical cleaners, as these can strip the anti-glare coating. Ensure ventilation space is maintained behind the monitor to prevent overheating during extended use.
