ultrafine 5k

Long story short I bought a Ultrafine 5k off facebook marketplace for $450. It was in excellent cosmetic condition and never gave me any problems until this morning. It refuses to acknowledge a connection to my m1 macbook air. I tried unplugging and plugging in both the usb-c and power cable and...

Not sure if this is a PSA or a rant :confused: I bought my Ultrafine 5K at the same time as my 2020 Intel Mac Mini and the combo worked flawlessly. I just switched to a 256GB iPad Air 5 (M1) as my primary computer and the 5K is worthless with it. For almost every connection, the 5K mirrors...

I recently upgraded my setup with a 5k Ultra fine monitor but wanted to run dual monitors with my old 4k Ultra fine. I know that you cannot daisy chain a 5k ultra fine because it lacks the thunderbolt connections. I read somewhere that it could be the "end" of the daisy chain if I start with the...

Hi guys, I've got my LG UltraFine 5K connected to my PC via the Moshi DisplayPort to USB-C cable plugged into my NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1080 Ti and I'm trying to setup NVIDIA Surround, however, no matter what I do, I can't get it to connect. It just keeps coming up with a display connection error...

I just received my LG 27" 5K UltraFine monitor (new, not used, 27MD5KL-B). Everything works great. However it has one small issue: the display isn't precisely aligned with the base horizontally (picture attached). I wonder if other users have the same issue? I noticed that another buyer on...

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...

Hi there, Hoping someone can help me :) I’ve installed a new LG 5K on a brand new humanscale M2.1 arm. I've been able to adjust the tension so up and down is working fine, but the monitor seems waay too heavy on its right hand side, it won’t stay straight at all unless I hold it. Tried the hex...

I have an LG 5k Ultrafine (27MD5KA-B) that has a pretty strange issue. Sometimes and frequently when I plug it in, parts of the screen's backlight won't work. I sent this in to LG whenever it was in warranty, they weren't able to reproduce, so they weren't able to fix it. I'm kinda confused on...

I was wondering if anyone could shed some light on something I've been trying to accomplish. I have a 16" MacBook Pro and the LG UltraFine 5K monitor which only allows Thunderbolt 3 for it to work with the Mac. This is fine, though the Mac needs 96 Watts and the monitor over Thunderbolt 3 only...

The 4K version is not flicker-free (https://www.rtings.com/monitor/reviews/lg/ultrafine-4k) but I can't find any reviews about the 5K version.

Hello, recently bought LG 5K UltraFine, 27MD5KL-B. Under certain conditions and viewing angle, it appears there is slight difference in the brightness; from what I can tell, the issue is visible on white background, where part of the right side of the screen seems as it transitions to slightly...

I have an external monitor for my iMac. I am looking for a new one. The way that this display wakes over displayport is incredibly obnoxious. I'll walk up to my iMac, hit a key to wake the screen up, and by the time my Watch has unlocked my computer, the external display has just gotten its...

Hi all, anyone else got a flickering problem in a single spot (on my display it's a a third of the right bottom) on the LG 5K with the current MBP 15" (i currently can't check if it's the display or the Macbook, no other Thunderbolt 3 Devices in the household :mad:). Thanks & Cheers, Lateshift

Hey! Anyone with two UltraFine 4k monitors who has been able to connect them to the MBP using only one cable? Either with a dock/hub or some hack. I have search the entire internet but wasn't able to find anything unfortunately. Any answer/help will be appreciated, cheers! :)

Didn't see a post about this, so starting one. I'm wondering if I can use the USB-C port to connect to my LG Ultrafine 5K monitor. If so, I'm wondering what resolution it will be. Same as iPad? Or native to the Ultrafine. If so, will it also charge the iPad at the same time (logically, it...

I was able to get my classic Mac Pro to drive the LG Ultrafine 5K at full 5K resolution retina mode enabled. I used an Gigabyte Alpine Ridge Thunderbolt 3 card inside my Mac Pro. 2 DP cables go from my Nvidia GTX 1080Ti to the Alpine Ridge then the Thunderbolt 3 cable goes from the Alpine Ridge...

Hello I own a MacBookPro 2018 i9 (highest frequency), 32GB RAM and 1TB SSD. Since I am a wedding photographer I work with Lightroom CC (current version). And beside of the open MacBook Pro Screen I am using the EIZO 27" 2550px x xxxpx. Currently I see Mac fan is blowing on a high frequency when...
