¹For three displays, Dell recommends that you configure the first two 4K displays on the main board (DP1~DP3), and the third
4K display on AMD GPU card.
²Dell recommends that you configure a maximum of four displays with 4K resolution and the remaining displays with non-4K
resolution on DisplayPort 3 and DisplayPort 6 for optimized stability and performance. However, based on the maximum
technical capability of Wyse 5070 Extended thin client, ThinOS supports a maximum of six 4K displays.
NOTE: Best practice—To achieve maximum 4K display output, Dell recommends setting up 1080p on the DisplayPort 3,
with rest of the monitors in 4K resolution to optimize performance.
