    Daisy Chain LG ultra fine 4k and 5k

    I recently upgraded my setup with a 5k Ultra fine monitor but wanted to run dual monitors with my old 4k Ultra fine. I know that you cannot daisy chain a 5k ultra fine because it lacks the thunderbolt connections. I read somewhere that it could be the "end" of the daisy chain if I start with the...

    Hello guys, I bought a m1 mini and I'm looking for a monitor to complete the setup. I'm looking at used options, and I was in doubt between the Thunderbolt Display (in the box, conserved and already comes with the TB2-TB3 adapter) and the LG Ultrafine 21.5 4K (2017 model, without a box, but also...

    I have been on the hunt for a 4K 24 inch monitor, and finally I found one! The Electriq Eiq-244kMHDR. It has a light matte AG coating, 10 bit IPS panel, 300 nits, and costs £140 ($190). Text looks ultra-smooth like a printed page on this screen! It works perfectly with my Mac and is detected...

    Dual 5k monitor (performance)

    I have a 16” MBP with 32 GB of memory. It’s currently attached to a 5k display, but am considering throwing another 5k monitor at it. I write software, and often tax my machine (think: compiling), but overall one 5k monitor seems to have no performance impact. I’d I add this second monitor...

    MBA 2020 Crashes after being unplugged from LG 4K Ultrafine Display

    I've done a search in this forum and can't see anything on here, but I vaguely remember similar issues with other MacBooks when the Ultrafine displays were first released. Typically what will happen is that when I unplug the single USB-C cable from the Air, the machine will either immediately...

    Classic Mac Pro 4,1 -> 5,1 driving Ultrafine 5K full resolution.

    I was able to get my classic Mac Pro to drive the LG Ultrafine 5K at full 5K resolution retina mode enabled.

    LG Ultrafine 4k/5k with PS4 Pro?

    Has anyone tried the 4k or 5k displays with the PS4 Pro? I use my monitor for my PS4 sometimes and want to be able to benefit from the Pro hardware if I want to. I would obviously use an adapter for HDMI.
