Mac Mini MGEN2B/A - BENQ GL2250 compatibility

[barryhill]

Hi

I am switching to Apple using the new Mac Mini MGEN2B/A and have a new Benq GL2250 HDML VGA monitor I could use with it?

Am I likely to experience compability problems?

If this monitor won't work, can anyone recommend a budget monitor that definitely will work?

thanks

Welcome to Mac!

No reason that won't work, but you will need a MDP->DVI-D or HDMI->DVI-D adapter. Not sure if the 2014 models come with it in the box, but the 2012 models do (well mine did for MDP... HDMI adapter is an add-on).

Should be around £10 or so on Amazon.
