Q: 4K 60Hz on Macbook Pro mid 2015 with Mini Displayport to HDMI 2.0A Active Adapter
Has anyone had success getting 4K (3840 x 2160) @60hz over HDMI using an Uptab Mini Displayport to HDMI 2.0A Active Adapter?
My setup:
mid 2015 MacbookPro with the AMD R9 Graphics card
El Capitan Version 10.11.5
Seiki SE42UMS 4K TV
HDMI 2.0 capable cable
I have been able to get 4K @30hz using the internal HDMI 1.4b port or Displayport to HDMI 1.4b adapter as well as the new Uptab Mini Displayport to HDMI 2.0A Active Adapter I just purchased. I have read a few reviews of Mac Pro users who have used the same Uptab adapter successfully to get 4K @60hz using HDMI but I do not even see a 60hz Refresh Rate option in the Display Preferences. Therefore, I'm not sure if it is a problem Apple needs to fix in the software or if it is another problem that I'm overlooking.
Any help or guidance would be appreciated.
MacBook Pro with Retina display, OS X El Capitan (10.11.5)
