Mac Pro Late 2013 and Samsung 4k monitor problem

I have the new Samsung 28" 4k screen (U28D590D) and it has tearing along the right edge when used with displayport. Any way to fix that? I tried different cables (all DisplayPort 1.2 complient) to be sure and have narrowed the issue to the Mac Pro. The HDMI works fine tho only @30hz so is a bit laggy in normal interaction. There is no way to turn on Multi-stream as indicated and I hope it isnt that this screen will never work.

Mac Pro, OS X Mavericks (10.9.2), Dual Fire Pro D700

good hint SNP001 to test 10.10 on an external drive .... and I can confirm too: the "artifacts and flickering" on the right side of my Eizo screen are gone!

now the dilemma starts ... artifacts or poor design?! 😉


other problem I got with Boot Camp that the monitor runs in 800x600'ish resolution but shows full ... but that doesn't belong here.

I have the exact same issues as 60 Hz via a DP 1.2 cable with an Eizo EV3237 - the tearing on the right side of the screen after waking from sleep.


Same problem on two different DP <> MDP 1.2 cables (high bitrate for 4K) - one is a factory cable from Eizo.

Solutions - each one works on its own:


- switch LCD off and on again

- change resolution and change it back

- change dekstop rotation in OS X prefs

Hi there, and especially joevt,


I've been reading the interesting many previous posts in order to find a solution to this situation:


  • Brand new Philips Brillance 288P 4K monitor
  • Macbook Air 13" from mid 2010 running OS X 10.6.8
  • NVIDIA GeForce 320M
  • Mini Display port cable to HDMI into the 288P Display


At first I couldn't get the passed the 1080p, then I downloaded the SwitchResX application and could manage to get to 2560 x 1440 but only at 30hz which is causing me a real headache after 10min.


I also have the Apple Cinema Display at home (the 288P is to put at my parents-in-law's) and on this one everything is fine...


I would totally understand there is no way to push UHD in 4K with my old MBr and setup but why can't I just get the same resolution and refresh rate as on the Apple screen? Am I missing something?


Thanks a lot for your help!


Marc.
