No-touch 13" Macbook Pro + LG Ultrafine 5K

[wiseoak1]

Will this 13" Macbook Pro (no touchbar) config run smooth with a LG Ultrafine 5K?

• 2.0GHz Dual-core Intel Core i5
• 16GB 1866MHz LPDDR3 SDRAM
• 512GB PCIe-based SSD
• Intel Iris Graphics 540

Yes

Yes, it's designed to do so. One 5k for all of the 13" 2016's or two 4k's are good to go. With the 15", it can handle two 5k monitors with it's dGPU.

It's specified to do what I said. Now, in real world use? Not 100% sure personally. I can state it runs the LG 4k just fine.

I would like to know if the 4K resolution is better than using a Thunderbolt 27".
