That's basically the same as the LG UltraGear 48GQ900-B.
Hopefully Apple will implement HDMI2.1 and DP2.0 in the next SoC.
Got a tip for us?

Thought about it after seeing Spawn Point saying in works with 4k120. Although I already bought the lg c2 a few months ago dangit. Grrrr. Seems not to be available yet anyways. Keeping my eye on it though.
Me! But the 48" version. It should arrive tomorrow! I had planned to go with gigabyte or the lg ultragear, but Asus is the only one using the new lg evo panel.
And?
Here in Mac land we are more concerned with what USB and ThunderBolt does. USB4 v2 is updated to align with the latest versions of the DisplayPort and PCIe specifications.
I’m curious what you mean by USB4 v2. The USB spec uses a different language to describe capability, like USBX gen Y with Z lanes, where X is mostly meaningless, and there is no “v” subversion.
AMD and Intel both look to be moving towards DP 2.0. Hopefully Apple does as well.
Okay so I downloaded the latest beta to give this a try. No dice. Still only getting 60 hz max. Using a usb-c to hdmi converter and an LG C2 oled.
Converter has been tested on windows to work.

I'm using HDMI 2.1 cable, which works in Windows as HDMI 2.1 120hz 4k 4:4:4.
100hz also behaves the same way - black screen. I had to connect with a remote desktop to change that back to 60hz.
I posted this elsewhere and was directed to this thread. I can tolerate 4k@60hz until this is fixed, and between my employer and my own wallet, I tend to get a new MBP on an annual basis. Knowing these things, is it still stupid to expect that this will be fixed by OS updates and/or new MBP laptops or is it likely that this LG C2 is never going to talk to MBP in the way I'd like?
It will most likely "magically" get fixed the moment Apple adds HDMI 2.1 support to their devices and by that notion their operating system.
I have a weird feeling that they'd only add this (software support) after they designed and started selling their own high refresh rate displays - and that is unlikely as the primary use case is gaming, which is not their focus.
macos 13 is released today, any luck?
