I'm thinking about buying a new display for my old Mac Mini (mid 2011).
The display it's a Samsung model S27B970D 27-Inch Screen LED-Lit Monitor - https://www.amazon.com/dp/B007M4UUF2/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_ep_dp_fEx3ybMSZV8AR which outputs a 2560x1440 resolution. The display comes with 3 distinct ports, a HDMI, a DL-DIV and a DisplayPort.
As per the Mac Mini (mid 2011) specs from Apple, its Thunderbolt port supports up to 2560-by-1600 resolution.
I'm not sure though if the Mac mini will really be able to deliver a full 2560x1440 @ 60hz to the display in case I use a Mini DisplayPort (Thunderbolt Port Compatible) to DisplayPort Cable such as the one here: https://www.amazon.com/Cable-Matters-Mini-DisplayPort-Black/dp/B00C7RJQPY
I'd really appreciate any input regarding the quality I can expect by using the display connected to the Mini through the Thunderbolt port with the help of a cable/adapter.
