Looks like a MacBook Pro 2015 or earlier can drive the 5K at full resolution at 60Hz by using both Thunderbolt ports? If so, that's pretty good.

- _ph_ 10y agoYes, it can. A colleague of mine is driving his 5k Dell Display with the MB Pro.
- emu 10y agoYes. I use the Dell display with a 2015 Macbook Pro, using dual Displayport cables. It works pretty well. I think you need the model with the AMD M370X GPU to drive an external 5k display. I also use the Dell 5k monitor with a PC with a Geforce 980 GPU; it works surprisingly well in Windows 10. (You can even play some games at 5k ---- Civilization VI is really pretty at 5k!) Linux support is woefully bad, however. I guess this will change as these HiDPI configurations become more common.
