Xbox to Imac

Hello I am wondering what would be the best adaptor for connecting an xbox one to a 2020 IMac for gameplay? I would want an adaptor that would give no lag input and would have a strong connection.

Hello, zsebz1.


If I understand correctly, you wish to use the 2020 iMac as a monitor for the Xbox One.


Unfortunately for you, my friend, that configuration is not supported by Apple. The iMac is a computer, not a monitor. It cannot be used as such. There is no adapter to allow that.


Your best option will be to buy a dedicated monitor for the Xbox. Decent monitors start at about $100. It shouldn't be hard to find something within you budget.
