I have 2 4k TVs for my 2018 i5 Mac Mini. There is noticeable lag with keyboard/mouse inputs. When i used just 1 display (the same TV) with HDMI to HDMI, this was not an issue. But adding a 2nd monitor with thunderbolt caused more problems (no waking from sleep, monitors not being in correct...

I’ve ordered an Apple Refurb 2018 Mac mini, and need to order a 2 x 32GB kit to replace the 8GB RAM that’ll come preinstalled. From various sources, I’ve been able to determine that I need to buy 2666 MHz PC4-21300 DDR4 (260-pin) SDRAM SO-DIMMs. After researching online prices here in the UK...

Greetings, I've retired my Mac Pro 3,1. And now the time has come to retire my Mac Pro 4,1 (flashed to 5,1). Doh. But behold, I'm getting a Mac mini 2018 (i7). Yay. Grabbing minimum amount of RAM so I can max it out much cheaper by myself. I'm also getting an eGPU. Meanwhile I'm probably making...

Hi, so far I was running a Mac Mini 2018 (i7, 32GB, Mojave 10.14.6) with an LG 5k monitor without any issues. Since the UI performance was a bit choppy, I added a Blackmagic eGPU (580x) today. The Mini is connected via Thunderbolt to the eGPU and the eGPU is connected via Thunderbolt to the LG...

Hi, Unfortunately, I'm not able to get my new Philips 499P display working with native 5120x1440 resolution on my late 2014 iMac 5K. I'm seriously considering buying maxed out 2018 mac mini, as my new workstation. Does anyone successfully connected 5120x1440 display to 2018 mac mini? I don't...

I just bought a 2018 Mac Mini, and I'm running an LG Ultrafine 5k display and an LG Ultrafine 4k display. So far the iGPU has been pretty bad at pushing that many pixels, but I'm not 100% sure if it's due to the speed of the iGPU itself or its lack of VRAM. I'm not running very graphics...
