I have a 2013 Mac Pro and an LG 5K ultrafine 27" display.
The LG display only has thunderbolt 3 connections, and the Mac Pro does not have thunderbolt 3/ usb-c.
I would like to connect the display to the Mac Pro.
What is the best setup for this?
Will I be able to get native 5K resolution with an adapter?

For ThunderBolt displays ONLY, you can use the Apple ThunderBolt-3 <--> ThunderBolt-2 adapter. For your case, you would need to add a genuine ThunderBolt-2 cable on the computer end.
NB>> This adapter does not support any other display protocols (even with adapters) than genuine ThunderBolt displays, and does not provide Thunderbolt power in either direction.

What adapter do I need to connect my LG 5K ultrafine display to a Mac Pro 2013?
