I have a 27"-Late 2015 iMac. It is time to purchase a new system. Can I use this Mac as a monitor with the Mac Studio M1Max?

Older iMac desktop/Mac M1 Mini/Monitor question I have an iMac built in late 2013 and still running High Sierra. Will I be able to use it as a monitor with the Mac M1 Mini which I am thinking of purchasing? If I am able to use it that is great, but if not do I need to look for a monitor with a Thunderbolt port to work with the M1 Mini or is that necessary? Thank you for your help!

No the Mac Studio is too new.

Target display mode was discontinued years ago.

This explains why.
