I recently stumbled across an lg 27md5kl b monitor that has 3 USB C inputs and a Thunderbolt input. I have an older Dell tower with windows 11 and I7 8700 processor and a AMD Raedon RX 570 GPU card with display port and HDMI outputs.

What sort of connector cables and or adapters do I need to be able to use the LG 27MD5KL b monitor with the dell tower? I have read many things online about what I need but unsure who or what to believe.

Regards

Thanks for al the help guys, I took it to the dump today, it is of no use without being able to hook it up.

You threw away an item that brings several hundred dollars on eBay?
That may be true but I cant sell it if I don't know if it works, in the mean time it was taking up space, I did try a couple of different cables but no luck getting a picture, it seemed the Thunderbolt connection was loose perhaps that is why. In any case I put it in an area for re use hopefully someone else can get it to work.
