iMac as monitor

I have a late 2012 intel 27 inch imac that I would like to use as a monitor for my macbook pro 2020 M1. There is no dedicated minidisplay port but as I understad the thunderbolt port works the same with regards to display?

If so, which cable do I need?

USB C to Minidisplay?

USB C to Thunderbolt?

Thunderbolt 3 to Thunderbolt?

Please advise.

Hi mountain man,

Unfortunately, M1 Macs do not support Target Display Mode, so this functionality is impossible.

Cheers,

Jack
