Frequently Asked Questions / Troubleshooting
Question
Does the CORSAIR XENEON 32QHD165 support video over USB-C?
Answer
Yes, the CORSAIR XENEON 32QHD165 supports DisplayPort over USB-C through the
dedicated TYPE-C DP ALT input. Use the included 1.5m Type-C cable or a quality
USB Type-C cable that supports USB 3.2 Gen 2 for best results.
I’m unable to use devices connected to the USB-A ports on my monitor when
connected to my device that supports USB-C Alt Mode using a single USB-C
cable.
Image is stretched/squished
Image has color issues
USB-C Alt Mode, by default will operate in “4 lane” mode which allows for full
DisplayPort resolution over USB-C, however this disables the use of the USB
Type-A ports. To re-enable the USB Type-A ports when connected solely via the
TYPE-C DP ALT input, switch to “2 lane” mode which will limit the supported
video output resolution in order to re-enable the USB Type-A ports for
peripherals connected to the monitor’s USB Type-A ports. Alternatively, you
may connect the source device to the USB downstream port as well as the TYPE-C
DP ALT port for full video resolution and USB port functionality. Ensure that
you’re using a quality USB Type-C cable that supports USB 3.2 Gen 2 for best
results.
Check the “Aspect Ratio” setting under “System Setting”. By default this is
set to “Auto”, however in certain instances, you may need to manually set an
aspect ratio (ex: certain combinations of adapters and retro game consoles).
Check the quality of the video cable and ensure that it isn’t damaged. Avoid
low quality video cables and extensions.
Reset the monitor to factory settings.
Artifacts in onscreen image Monitor has a dead pixel What kind of VESA mount is compatible?
Adjust the picture settings via OSD.
Check the quality of the video cable and ensure that it isn’t damaged.
Check your source device, a faulty graphics card or game console may require
contacting the manufacturer for assistance.
CORSAIR provides a “Zero Dead Pixel” policy for monitor products, if 1 or more
bright pixels or 6 or more dark subpixels are found, the monitor will be
exchanged during the 3-year warranty period.
CORSAIR XENEON 32QHD165 supports a standard 100mm x 100mm mount, the monitor
head must be removed from the stand. Use the mounting screws supplied with
your VESA mount.

Answer
CORSAIR XENEON 32QHD165 supports standard webcams that sit on the top bezel of
the display as well as larger DSLR/ mirrorless cameras when used with the
Elgato Multi-Mount Adapter Kit for XENEON and Elgato Flex Arm L/S kit (Both

Check to ensure that your PC has the latest version of CORSAIR iCUE installed.
The CORSAIR XENEON 32QHD165 is supported in iCUE version 4.15 or newer.
Check to ensure that the cable connected to the USB-C upstream on the monitor
and your PC’s USB 3.0 port is properly connected. Avoid connecting the monitor
through a USB hub or extension if possible. We strongly recommend using the
USB-C cable provided with the CORSAIR XENEON monitor for best results.
The CORSAIR XENEON 32QHD165 is certified for AMD FreeSync Premium and is also
NVIDIA G-SYNC compatible.
Check that AMD FreeSync is enabled via OSD.
Check your graphics card settings and ensure that AMD FreeSync / NVIDIA G-SYNC
are enabled. AMD FreeSync functions over any of the video ports. NVIDIA G-Sync
compatibility only works over DP or USB Type-C Alt-Mode DP
Check your graphics card/system display settings and ensure that 165Hz refresh
rate has been enabled. See Supported Display Mode table in Appendix for
available options.
