Early 2016) and
late-2016

rates over HDMI when
used with a supported
HDMI 2.0 display, an

- sly010 10y agoI think the keyword is "when used with a supported display" here. I have yet to find a 4K display for my mac pro that actually works at 60hz.
- jsjohnst 10y agoUnless it's a typo in your reply and you meant MBP, Mac Pro isn't listed above. They explicitly call out machines that support USB-C, which the Mac Pro is not.
- rz2k 10y agoI see that active adapters that support HDMI 2.0 are about $25 now. Apple's $50 multiport adapter is only HDMI 1.4b, I suppose because it only handles the built in USB-C alternate mode.
- jsjohnst 10y agoYep! That's exactly why. USB-C alternate mode only supports DisplayPort 1.3 and HDMI 1.4b. You'll need an active adapter like you mentioned. Not surprisingly, Apple doesn't sell them, that would be to useful. For future readers, here's one as an example: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01FIVSC6Y/ https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01FIVSC6Y/
