Why when I connect my monitor to my Xbox series s it says out of range?
Hi there, Josue165hz! Thanks for the question! The error “Out of Range” normally means that the resolution being output by the computer is not compatible with the display. Try lowering the resolution to see if that helps resolve the issue. You may need to connect another monitor or restart the computer or source to accomplish this. Here is a link on how to adjust the resolution of your 27'' UltraGear FHD 1ms 165Hz Monitor with AMD FreeSync™ Premium (27GQ40W-B): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nsBdrC6TI2M ^Jolly

The LG 27'' UltraGear FHD 1ms 165Hz Monitor with AMD FreeSync™ Premium, Model # 27GQ40W-B is not a G-Sync or G-Sync Compatible monitor...^Ivan

How long, in inches, are the prongs on the stand?
Regrettably, the specifications for the LG 27'' UltraGear FHD 1ms 165Hz Monitor with AMD FreeSync™ Premium, Model # 27GQ40W-B do not list a length for the legs on the base. The base has a width of 18.9" (48.0 cm) and a depth of 9.4" (23.9 cm), but we do not have access to CAD drawings that might show the length of the legs...^Ivan

What display port version is the cable in the box with the monitor and what is the max supported display port version for the monitor
According to VESA, DisplayPort cables are not classified by “version”. Although DisplayPort cables are usually marked with version numbers, such as an HBR2 cable labeled “DisplayPort 1.2 cable”, this notation is not allowed by VESA. All features of DisplayPort can be used through any DisplayPort cable. DisplayPort does not have multiple cable designs; all DP cables have the same basic layout & wiring, and support any feature, such as audio, daisy chain, G-Sync/FreeSync, HDR, and DSC. Using the version number on the cable may seem to imply that the DisplayPort 1.4 monitor needs to use the “DisplayPort 1.4 cable”, or that the features introduced in DP 1.4 (such as HDR or DSC) will not be available in the earlier “DP 1.2 cable”. These are not true. If the DisplayPort cable has been certified, it will only be classified according to its bandwidth certification level (RBR, HBR, HBR2, HBR3).
The DisplayPort input on the LG 27'' UltraGear FHD 1ms 165Hz Monitor with AMD FreeSync™ Premium, Model # 27GQ40W-B is version 1.2...^Ivan
