Well, I should have thought of this before but the USB 4 ports on my new X870E mainboard do offer DisplayPort output from the AMD 7000 CPU onboard Radeon Graphics.

It's only Displayport 1.4 with HBR3, so a maximum of 4K 60Hz, but I'll take it. Working fine at 2K 144Hz. Two monitors now up and running.

In an surprising display (to coin a phrase) of forthought I even have the correct DP to USB C cable on hand!

Sometimes the odds really are in your favour 😊

Now to work out why the Nvidia GPU isn't working very well with Windows 11 and the correct drivers installed.

Vorstellung zur CES: MSI zeigt neue AM5-Mainboards mit B850/B840 und X870E https://www.computerbase.de/news/mainboards/vorstellung-zur-ces-msi-praesentiert-neue-am5-mainboards-mit-b850-b840-und-x870e.90934/ #MSI #B850 #B840 #X870E #AM5

If you are in the market for an AMD X870E mainboard then I can recommend the MSI X870E Carbon WiFi.

Seems very well screwed together and robust. More high speed USB 3 ports than any other board I've seen.

Running an Ryzen 9700X with slower latency DDR5 6000 RAM (CL28) with no issues.

Integrated POST diagnostics display debug LED's are very helpful.

The UEFI Firmware seems full featured although there is something going on with the AGESA 1.2.0.2b firmwares as they are being quietly withdrawn by Asrock (reasons unknown). Maybe more testing required? 🫤🤷‍♂️
