Hello,
I have an LG 32MP58HQ connected to my Mac Mini via HDMI. It is running at the native 1080p 60Hz. While it is great for video, everything is just too large to view comfortably to the point where I back off my browser to 80%.
I am thinking that I would be better off with a native 2560x1440 monitor—looking at the Dell S3219D— but I want to make sure I am choosing wisely. Am I correct in thinking that the switch will give me smaller, sharper text and mimic a pre-retina iMac display?
Also, what type of cable would be the best choice to run the monitor? I run my cable through the wall, so I need about 6'. Would HDMI work? Or if I went with USB-C, would it have to be 3.1, or would 2.0 or 3.0 work? How about USB-C to HDMI?
Thanks,
hawk
