Ultra wide display stretched out images problem

Hi,

I had to connect a Samsung Odyssey G95C ultra wide display to a new Mac mini.

No matter what I try the images are all stretched out no matter what resolution I try I can’t get the icons back in shape.

Any suggestions?

Is the screen in general stretched?

If you open a PDF is the text similarly stretched?

Does the resolution you’ve set match the maximum resolution of the monitor?

I tried all resolutions some look less worse than others.

All images are stretched wide :frowning:

Set the resolution to the one supported by your Monitor. A quick search suggests that this is 5,120 x 1,440. If your Mac doesn’t offer this as a supported resolution, it probably won’t support the monitor.

After some research one needs to use a USB C 3.1 to DisplayPort cable in order to get access to the proper screen resolutions.
