I want to use my old 2014 Mac Mini as a spare computer and link it to an Iiyama ProLite X1670HC-B1
Monitor, which has a USB C interface. Can I connect them using either Thunderbolt 2 or HDMI?

You need to use a monitor that supports HDMI, DisplayPort, DVI or VGA with the 2014 Mac Mini.

Hi,
I think you can't.
There is simply no way to use it with your model Mini. The USB-A ports and the USB3 spec does not support DP alt mode. Also, the Thunderbolt port only supports Thunderbolt devices.
Thanks. I suspected that was the case, but it’s good to have confirmation. I find the whole Thunderbolt/USB nexus confusing.
