    USB-C vs thunderbolt monitor

    Hi there folks, got a debate going on for my future computer on what type of monitor to get. I plan on buying a new Mac mini M2 and I am not sure if I want to spend a lot of money on a 5K monitor. I seemed pretty content with a 4K but I been reading most of them are USB-C ready but not...

    Dual 5k monitor (performance)

    I have a 16” MBP with 32 GB of memory. It’s currently attached to a 5k display, but am considering throwing another 5k monitor at it. I write software, and often tax my machine (think: compiling), but overall one 5k monitor seems to have no performance impact. I’d I add this second monitor...

    Anybody using 5K Philips Brilliance 275P (aka 275P4 aka 275P4VYKEB) with Macbook Pro?

    Since Dell UP2715K seems discontinued and I didn't like hp z27q I wanted to give Philip's 5K a try. But before ordering on-line I was looking for some information about its compatibility with my MacBook Pro 2015 15" (ATI version). To my deep surprise there is close to none. UP2715K is...

    LG UltraFine 5K & Mac Pro (Late 2013): 5K resolution showing in display preferences - is it 30Hz?

    Hello, My local Apple Store has LG UltraFine 5K monitor hooked to a Mac Pro (Late 2013) via TB3 to TB2 adapter running at 5120 x 2880 resolution. Based on my understanding from this forum, it is impossible to run 5K resolution via single TB2 output due to limited bandwidth of DisplayPort 1.2...

    Why No Apple-made Next-Gen/5K Display?

    I just had this realization: Apple has made a 5K display for a while now -- it just happens to be glued to a computer (the iMac). Now that there's finally USB-C/Thunderbolt 3 available to pipe 5K video to an external display, why haven't they simply taken their iMac 5K Retina and made a...

    5k recommendation

    So, there is the new LG UltraFine 5K. It's not particular good looking and it's pricey. Are there any good alternatives for my new 2016 MBP? I see some from Dell, but do they have the same "improved color space" and how is the picture in general?

    New Apple 5k display - should I be excited?

    I use the old -- let's be real and say very, very old -- Apple Thunderbolt display both at home and at work. New macs are exciting, but the rumored 5K display is nirvana to me. Of course, I won't be able to afford it, but that's not the point here. The best thing about the Thunderbolt display...

    Does anyone have any recommendations for an External Monitor, which will work smoothly with my MBP (Late 2011). After doing a bit of research I found that some of the UHD monitors may not work with my MBP 2011 model ideally, a UHD monitor would be preferred as I would be looking to upgrade my...

    Best Cable connection Titan X to Dell 5k monitor

    Hello Peeps! I'm a newbie so please be gentle if I'm out of sorts. I am wearing a flak jacket just in case I'm doing something inappropriate. ;-} I just acquired a Mac Pro Tower 5.1 with a NVIDIA GTX Titan X 12 GB card. I was wondering what the best cable to connect it to a Dell 27" 5k monitor...
