Below is my test result:True. I wanted to remind of the cable that enables HDMI to USB-C/TB since most cables are USBC to HDMI out in the market.
I purchased a higher-tier base model ($3,999) from eBay last Friday, and I am so happy.
I am now browsing which small monitor I can attach to the Mac Pro since my primary machine is ASD+M2 Mac mini. This Mac Pro is a remote server I can access from my work thru Chrome Remote Desktop. So, whenever, I need Mac-oriented works, I can do it thru this setup. I have been using iPad Pro so far, but Mac does better in most jobs.
ASD with Apple TB4 cable.
Mac mini M2
Mac Pro 6,1 with 6-core & AMD 500D
Apple Thunderbolt 3 to 2 adapter
Apple TB 2 cables, 2m & 0.5m
1. I know what 5K @60Hz looks like since I have Mac mini M2 + ASD.
2. As to Mac Pro 6,1, I already posted my initial connection scenario using Club-3D's USB-C to HDMI cable. As @arw stated, it is 4K @30Hz. It works fine in both MacOS 12.6.3 & Bootcamp Win10.
3. Then, I purchased Apple TB3 to 2 adapter to get 4K @60Hz worked between 6,1 + ASD.
4. It DOES work with macOS 12.6.3, but DOES NOT work with Bootcamp Win10.
5. Most of all, while working well with macOS, among the six TB2 ports on 6,1, the port 1 & 3 (bus 1) DO NOT work even with macOS 12.6.3. How come?? The port 2 & 4 (bus 2) and 5 & 6 (bus 0) work well at 4K @60Hz.
6. I tested with both TB2 cables (2m & 0.5m). no luck.
7. Any chance for the port 1 & 3 to be broken? I tested target disk mode with my MBA 11" 2015, which has a TB2 port, and the target disk modes worked very well with all ports 1 thru 6 with both TB2 cables.
Since Bootcamp Win10 does not work with this TB3 to 2 adapter + TB2 cable, I rather stick to Club 3D adapter even though it's only 30Hz.
Any advice on the port 1 & 2, and bootcamp win10? Thanks in advance. I appreciate.
