I recently acquired 2 of these displays. I connected one display to my windows HP Elitebook 840G8 laptop via USB C and then I daisy chained via Display Port 1.4 to extend. The monitor connected to the laptop is working well with 4k @60HZ. However, the daisy chained monitor is limited to 4k @30HZ. Not sure why I can’t access the max 60Hz refresh rate. The USB C port on the laptop is USB C Alt Thunderbolt 4. I used the cables provided in the monitor box. I’m assuming the cables are meant to provide the max bandwidth that the monitor supports. Does someone have any idea about the issue and the solution?

Having bought one, this many be a limitation of your laptop. I could plug in to 4k monitors directly via USB-C, and also daisy chain both at 60hz.

I bough this display and found it can daisy chain on windows 11 at full resolution and 60hz as the primary display, using a Displayport to USB-c / Thunderbolt cable. ie the second monitor in the chain receives USB-C. Both have 60 hertz this way.

Try setting the USB-C Prioritization to High Resolution on the Dell.
