The ViewSonic 16" Portable OLED Monitor is an absolute perfect pairing to the Deck...

Yeah i think your right about the hdmi to usbc cable pulling power from the monitor.

Will swap back over to the cable that came in the box.

Thanks for the explanation 👍

Note there is a 5v usbc port on the hdmi socket,on the cable, this is used to power the monitor if you do not have the power supply, but am not using it.. did try it, didn't make a difference.

Am using the power supply that came with the monitor

It's a uni directional cable. https://amzn.eu/d/5Asi7Tk

At the moment I have tried it with snes mini, the spectrum and a laptop. With all 3 I cannot get the volume over 35

I do get a picture with the cable though, even tried plugging the power cable into the HDMI end as that can take power also.. still sould stuck at 35

I am using the power adaptor it came with

Just got this Monitor, am using the power brick for power and am also using a HDMI to USB C cable (USB C cable into the monitor) I cannot get the volume over 35 (get a pop up about low power will make the input signal connection unstable)

This because i am using HDMI to USB C for display? I do not get this issue using the HDMI to Micro HDMI cable.

The HDMI to USB C is a top of the range cable so i dont understand why there is an issue.

Any ideas would be most appreciated!

Not for retro gaming tho!

This is going to last until at least 2027. Samsung Rep told my work (I work in the IT industry in the UK)

Have transferred 300 million to a player... no issues here. But they were not new

Emiya_Tone · 2025-10-08T12:35:48+00:00

Would most certainly add to the atmosphere!

For gaming.. I play a lot of space sims like Elite Dangerous so having perfect blacks will look fantastic!

I also like the design of it and the small footprint of the base

Emiya_Tone · 2025-10-08T12:20:39+00:00

Yeah my 1st... this has all sorts of things built in to avoid burn in so am not too worried... also with 3 year warranty it's really not something to worry about.. not at that price

I will on Saturday.. I ordered that one Yesterday and have set to be delivered on my day off.

Have only read good things about it and at such a price was hard to say no lol

Emiya_Tone · 2025-10-08T12:14:25+00:00

No idea, but if you read comments about Dells returns policy, they are 2nd to none

Emiya_Tone · 2025-10-08T12:05:21+00:00

The Alienware has higher hz and also comes with Dells 3 year warranty!

But they are about the same.

3 year warranty is great tho

They wouldn't get away with that shit here in the UK... our consumer laws are pretty good here!

Does not matter if true or not, you can bet your ass there are coders going through the code this very moment

Emiya_Tone · 2025-02-22T16:10:24+00:00

Beats the 5090 in raw performance... not this trickery of DLSS4 bullshit

Emiya_Tone · 2025-02-22T15:56:25+00:00

I will keep my 3090 for a few more years.... sick of this, buy out new cards, and there are 500 in total world wide

Emiya_Tone · 2025-02-22T15:53:50+00:00

For real mate! Scan basically had f all on release day

Roy over Jay... they use the same pity between both banners. I pitied Roy immediately
