[iMore Question]

Hi, What cable or adapter can I use to connect a Late 2016 Macbook Pro with an LG 27UD68 monitor at 4K/60? It looks tricky via Thunderbolt 3 (USB-C) to DisplayPort 1.2...

USB-C/Thunderbolt cord will work BUT you need to do this tweak to your Mac to get 60Hz....

Thanks! But does the USB-c / Thunderbolt 3 to Display port dongle need specific specs? If so, would you have a product SKU as exemple?

Would this work: https://www.amazon.com/DisplayPort-B...mUvbUpU2851983

I heard there was an issue with the chip inside the dongle to have full Thunderbolt 3/DisplayPort 1.2 compatibility.

Thank you for your time.

Depending on the cord you use that dongle should work. Yes there IS an issue, read that article I posted. Apple has limited the device to 30Hz BUT that article tells you how to tweak your device and enable 60Hz. It's not the dongle, it's the computer, but it can be handled, read that article!
