Hi.
Have old MacBook Pro 15" mid 2012.
Now I use miniDP port with 28" Samsung monitor (4k) and use 2560 x 1440 with 60hz
I buy TB sound card Apogee Element. It have only one port TB. But I need to use also miniDP on monitor (or connect it under 2560 by hdmi)
I look at Thunderbolt docks (1/2/3)..
1) Thunderbolt docks 1/2 have output HDMI. If I use one of them - does HDMI cable work for me from it with 2560?
2) Thunderbolt 3 docks much cheaper. If I use it with TB 2to3 Adapter, does it work if I connect to miniDP port my display? Why ask about TB3 docks, I read that adapter Tb 2to3 cant be connected to miniDP monitors... But.. If I connect TB2-3 adapter to my mpb thunderbolt1 port and with cable connect to this adapter dock TB3, and out of miniDP connect to my monitor its can work or not???
What Apple adapter tb2to3 info said that you cant connect miniDP displays? Its not work for only cable connection? But if connect using dock tb3 mDP dock -> mDP monitor?
May be you can know anything about resolutions 2560x1440 with MBP mid 2012 (non retina) and HDMI ports of TB2 docks?
