Hi
I was hoping that you people can help me find out if any of these two setups will work.
I'm going to get an ultra wide monitor with 3440x1440 resolution. It will probably be the AOC AGON AG352UCG. This monitor have connection for one DisplayPort and one HDMI.
For this monitor I'm going to connector both my gaming PC and a Mac Mini(for media server).
The PC is going to use the DisplayPort so that i can get 100Hz, but the Mac Mini will use the HDMI.
So, what I'm thinking is the Mac Mini late 2012 or late 2014. I have read that the late 2012 model only support this resolution if I use the thunderbolt because the HDMI does can't reach 3440x1440.
But, is it possible to get 3440x1440 resolution if I use the thunderbolt and connect it to the Belkin Thunderbolt Express Dock 2, and then connect the dock to the monitor with a HDMI cable?
If this is 100% guaranteed to not work, I will then have to go with the late 2014 model.
Can I then use 3440x1440 resolution with the HDMI?
