With the new 5K and 6K 100+Hz monitors coming out for 2026 (hopefully) what are the anticipated requirements to support them? Would the M4 Mac Mini non-pro have the ability to drive something like a 6K 120Hz monitor or would at least the pro version be required. Or, would the monitor's onboard chip/board determine that?
Got a tip for us?

Because even 5K/120Hz uses more or less all the available bandwidth of DP1.4 over a TB4/USB-C channel it would require Apple to set it up in MacOS for it to work.
Equally they could restrict it to only newer or higher spec models...
