About this deal

USB-C is a powerful connector and is now a part of most ultrathin, compact laptops like MacBook Air, Dell XPS 13, or the Microsoft Surface Laptop 3. This powerful connector allows features like charging your laptop or connecting dongles to read contents from an SD card, among others. The best part is the USB-C’s Alternate Mode, which lets you use the same port to output video to an external display. So if you have an external monitor with a DisplayPort, you can get a USB-C to DisplayPort cable to connect your Mac to it. Also Pixio mentioned not to use converters since some shady companies will sell you garbage that could destroy an input of the monitor and because people can be silly and say the monitor broke when in reality its the converter.) I am using the 4K monitor for editing photographs and business. Not sure if this setup would be fast enough for gaming. Also on this size display you may have to reset the display characters to a custom size. I used 200 and I can now read the text in the menus. At the same time, if you are on a Windows system and have more than one DisplayPort-compatible monitor, you can also use the MST mode to daisy chain both the monitors.

DisplayPort over USB-C has many advantages over DisplayPort and its primary competitors. These advantages include increased convenience, versatility, functionality, and multi-display streaming. Convenience However, it has a small caveat. If you have the 12-inch Apple MacBook, you’ll get 4K-only at 30Hz. Other than that, it’s a versatile cable and works on both macOS and Windows systems.All other products will be delivered via the fastest available method (excluding bank holidays and weekends) and generally within 3-5 days, depending on customer location. So if you have an extremely powerful processor and no videocard then you should probably buy a video card also and enjoy the computer as it was meant to be used. The best part is that it’s available in three lengths – 3ft, 6ft, and 10ft. This gives you the flexibility of setting up your monitor is as per your convenience and preference. Hard drive retention: Hard drive retention is not available on models with a soldered hard drive, including XPS 9315 2in1, Chromebooks or Venue tablets, except the Venue 11 Pro. To be clear about 'a' - I bought 2 x4K AOC monitors for business purposes and although they are great - when the system works - I could see hours of time about to be wasted diagnosing the failing connectivity between graphics cards, DP1.2 etc. I have previously used the OEM Displaylink USB/VGA etc units for years without problems. When I bought this device and plugged it in the screen came up in full 4K almost immediately - as a result I have just bought another one.

Will DisplayPort over USB-C provide the same level of performance and features as the standard DisplayPort connection? Again, it has standard looks and doesn’t have fancy frills like the braided exterior, textured connectors, and the likes. It’s a simple USB-C to DisplayPort cable, and that’s about it.

Thunderbolt 3

Again, it’s a versatile cable and works on macOS and Windows systems. CableMatters claims that this one can support 8K resolution at 60Hz. However, you can rest assured that this DisplayPort cable works perfectly in 4K resolution at 60Hz. Yes. Adapters and Adapter cables are available to connect DisplayPort over USB-C to DisplayPort, HDMI, DVI, and VGA monitor inputs. Outside of that, this thing is great & saved my a few hundred on buying an additional like-model video card. Follow directions to install the driver & connect the device. If it doesn’t work right away, you may need to reboot & make sure you don’t plug the display port line into the device before the blue light comes on.

Battlefield 4 will be a nightmare. Playing this game or looking at the infamous blue screen is the same. For USB Power Delivery, DisplayPort over USB-C cables can provide up to 100 watts. This is convenient for laptop users, as it's possible to maintain your laptop's charge via the connection to the monitor, meaning it's unnecessary to drag the charger around with you. DisplayPort over USB-C enables the USB-C connector and cable to support the DisplayPort interface for audio/video (AV) transport capability.Can I connect an existing monitor to a new computer, tablet or phone that uses the USB-C connector with DisplayPort over USB-C?
