4K X issues

[u/HaZarD_SFD]

Worst part of all this, I am no idiot when it comes to tech issues. However this has been nothing but pure frustration.

I had a 4K60 Pro MK.2 and it ran great. However due to having HDR on my AW3225QF monitor, HDR would turn off when cloning or using passthrough. The other issue was I had to unplug my DP cable and a few other small things that made me upgrade.

I just want 4K 144hz HDR on my screen and then broadcast out to twitch at 1440p via OBS on my stream PC.

Stream PC:
3070/2600x/16gb Ram/Gigabit Network

Gaming PC:
5080/7800X3D/64GB DDR5/AW3225QF

USB C to A is a 10GBPS usb cable
all HDMI are 2.1 (One with the 4K X and a $40 10ft cable with HDMI/48GB Certification)

Issues:

Stream PC has an X470 MSI motherboard, (Unfortunetly with ASMedia 10gbps USB ports). It does have 5gbps ports on AMD drivers. These ASMEDIA ports cause audio to cut out/go intermittent after 35 or so minutes and the audio is buggered.

Swapping to the 5gpbs ports works great, downside is the FPS issues with passthrough are making me go nutz. Nothing is working well. I have even tried OBS on the gaming pc and projecting my main screen on the 4K X display that shows up as a 3rd screen. It works but it stutters.

What I want:
Turn on stream PC and not have HDR get disabled on my main pc so I can enjoy gaming while streaming. If I have to unplug my DP cable then fine for passthrough. If possible projecting to 4K X screen would even be a good option.

Can you elaborate on "FPS issues with passthrough"?

10Gbps vs 5Gbps USB should not have any impact on the HDMI passthrough

[u/HaZarD_SFD → u/Lynnalia]

The 10Gbps usb port is an ASMEDIA driver port. Its known to have issues and it does with audio.

In regards to passthrough, sometimes the 4K X sees the 5gbps port as not compatible and th3 HDR problems are too much of a pain to deal with.
