Non Apple Display For Mac
There are muggers out there, so try to keep unused cash in the bank, earning interest. If you get injured, pop in to see the local doctor at his surgery, but look out – he has no scruples, and you have kidneys. Along the way, special market events will cause prices to rise or fall spectacularly, so be ready for these, this is how you get rich! Other loan sharks can lend you money to solve short-term liquidity crunches, but they'll be after their money soon enough!
Top pick: The sweet spot for specs, Mac compatibility, and price point, the 27-inch Dell Ultra HD (P2715Q) monitor ($498) gets you a solid display with Dell’s specs and build quality not unlike. Use your iMac as a display. You can view the desktop of your Mac on the display of some iMac models using Target Display Mode. In some cases, you can also use Target Display Mode to play the sound from your Mac (called the primary Mac) on the speakers of the external iMac.For example, if you have a MacBook Pro you could use an iMac as the display and for playing audio.
Hi,
Well, sounds good. One major hurdle to overcome. There are no external controls on the Thunderbolt Display. There is no Apple device to plug in to give display control. I have a 27' Thunderbolt Display for my Mac. That being said.
The Driver and Software provided by HP Thunderbolt 2 PCIe Card must provide controls for the Thunderbolt Display i.e. Hue, Brightness, Contrast, Internal Speakers and Volume Control, USB Hub Thunderbolt Port. Built-in accessories such as Ethernet, Firewire, Camera, quite possibly the USB Hub and Thunderbolt Port might not apply in this case. These following conditions must be met for adequate operation:
Color Profile
Hue Control
Brightness Control
Contrast Control
Correct Resolutions and Hertz
Correct Display Driver
I really do not recommend the Apple Thunderbolt Display for Non-Apple PC's. There are way too many wide ranges of Monitor choices for PC's on the market in a wide range of prices. The Apple Thunderbolt Display is designed to get the most out of the Mac and benefits the Mac. Being totally unbiased here. I have an Asus PA248Q Monitor for my PC. Price - Wow and Picture Quality - Wow. It, along with other brands have built in USB Hub and Internal Speakers. If you desire the Thunderbolt Display with the PCIe Card, well, it's your call.
Cheers!!
