    MP 6,1 Mac Pro 6,1 - 12core /D700 flicker issue

    So I’ve posted about this before but I’m running out of patience. I’ve had my Mac Pro 6,1 trash can since release. Ironically in the first few weeks of owning it I had a fault., naturally 7£k is a big chunk of money, so with it being so new it was replaced outright by Apple. This in recent...

    Mac mini to iMac display issue

    I've got a recently purchased Mac mini connected to an old iMac via a USB-C-to-miniDisplayPort cable. Everything works fine except for when I first power the Mac mini on -- the iMac briefly shows the Apple logo, and then the screen goes dark. To actually see the video, I have to disconnect and...

    Displays which fade in on screen wake

    I have an external monitor for my iMac. I am looking for a new one. The way that this display wakes over displayport is incredibly obnoxious. I'll walk up to my iMac, hit a key to wake the screen up, and by the time my Watch has unlocked my computer, the external display has just gotten its...

    Picture quality MBP vs. Mac mini

    Hello I got the new Mac mini some weeks ago and is very happy with it. There is only one thing that bugs me. I think the picture quality is worse than it was with my MacBook Pro 2016 (now sold). The MacBook Pro was connected with displayport 1.2 over a Thunderbolt 3 dock but the Mac mini is...

    Is it possible to get more than 60hz on an external monitor with a macbook air (2018) ?

    As the title states. I really like my MacBook Air, the only downside being (Mac in general) the lack of gaming possibilities. I now play games through the Geforce Now streaming service. It's actually quite great, allows me to play any game I like (also windows exclusives). I would like to...

    MP 6,1 2013 MacPro 12core d700 flicker

    hey guys. Thought I’d reach out. I’ve had an ongoing issue for well, years with my Mac Pro. Having had almost every part replaced the Mac has a flicker on external display. Apple have now determined that the flicker on my screen is because it’s in a scaled resolution. However it doesn’t do it on...

    I recently bought a BenQ PD2500Q Display with a native Resolution of 2560 x 1440 px. I'm trying to hook up my old MacBook Pro 15" mid 2010.

    There's a strange glitch that happens on my monitor (BenQ BL 2711U) which seems to be random, but I'm unsure. It's generally only a portion of the screen for a split second, but once it happened across the entire monitor and I was able to capture the photo attached here. I believe I unplugged...

    DisplayPort output from TB3 devices?

    I have two Dell 4K displays, which primarily I use connected to a 2018 Mac mini but occasionally (when the mini inevitably has a hardware fault, like now) I will revert to my “spare” machine, a 2018 MBP15. At the moment I’m using a tb3>dual DisplayPort adapter from OWC, and a plethora of USB...
