And the two generations of Thunderbolt technology are compatible with each other."Īlso, the Apple mini displayport support page has not been updated since 2012 but I believe it is just showing old information "Now with Thunderbolt 2 built into the new Mac Pro and MacBook Pro with Retina display, you can connect the latest 4K desktop displays and get double the bandwidth for your peripherals. Plus, on apple's thunderbolt page they specifically mention connecting a 4K display to a macbook pro through the thunderbolt port (not which is suggested by the support page listed above): My evidence of this is that on the ifixit teardown they found a an Intel DSL 5520 Thunderbolt 2 controller which according to Intel's and Wikipedia's website is falcon ridge which means it should support Display port 1.2 natively. However, I think it does include 60Hz support (although not mentioned on apple's website). As cheap (highest value) would be great.Īlternatively-if I can achieve the same result with a non-thunderbolt monitor and a dock of some sort, that'd work as well.I also am very confused by this because per apple's support page it only supports 4K via HDMI at 30Hz but SHOULD support 60Hz via a mini display port 1.2 specification built into thunderbolt 2. I don't really need anything specific for gaming, just as long as movies and shows look great, I'll be happy. I spend long hours looking at screens so I'd like a big monitor, preferably 4K, and something that'd make movies and shows look great.
This is primarily just for work doing research, reading patient charts, etc (healthcare provider). I don't use it for video, photo, or other creative/super creative applications, and I don't really game. Just bought a 16" MacBook Pro and would love a monitor that has thunderbolt 3 so I only need one cable when I run it at home. Looking for a Thunderbolt 3 monitor recommendation!
