Woah, do you know if this works with the new retina display iMacs?
- michas 12y agoProbably not, as current Thunderbolt port is too slow to transmit enough data to drive 5k monitor.
- eddieroger 12y agoAt the risk of answering without a guaranteed answer, "probably not," given the amount of the power necessary to drive that screen and complex architecture inside the box to make it work. But Target Display Mode as a thing has been around for a while.
- mkhalil 12y agoI'm here to confirm to you that it doesn't. Sorry buddy, wish it did myself. 5K is out of reach for most MBP's (if not all).
- MagicWishMonkey 12y agoThat's a bummer, it would be worth buying a new iMac for the screen alone.
