Samsung Odyssey G9 49" DQHD 240Hz 1ms GTG Curved VA LED G-Sync Gaming Monitor to iMac 2015

Hi

I have just purchased the above monitor but when connecting to my iMac 27inch 2015 model (5k Retina), I cannot get above 3840x2180 on the monitor. The monitor itself can go to 7680x 2160.


I have tried with all the cables that are provided by Samsung with no luck. (HDMI, Displayport to USB).


Any help would be appreciated!!


Thanks

iMac Line (2012 and Later)

Please refer to the system specifications for a 2015 27" iMac located in iMac (Retina 5K, 27-inch, Mid 2015) - Technical Specifications (apple.com). They say:


  • Simultaneously supports full native resolution on the built-in display and up to 3840 by 2160 pixels on an external display.
