I have an ASUS PA329CV that will not run on USB C on my Mac Mini. It worked yesterday but not today. ASUS was baffled. Anyone have any advice the usb C cable is brand new and came with the monitor.
Mac mini 2018 or later
Like most display manufactures, they toss cheap-o cables in the box.
You have several aftermarket cable options with that display.
Personally I would go with the last, a TB/USB-C to DisplayPort cable.

DisplayPort and HDMI only carry Video, If you want to use the displays built-in USB hub, then you will need to use a separate USB cable between the Mac Mini and Display.
Personally I would use the USB-C to DisplayPort cable and a USB to USB cable.
Use a USB-A to USB-A cable for the displays USB accessories.
Both arrived today. A new TB/USB-C to Display Port cable. It worked but did not enable any of the 5 usb's on the monitor. I also tried a new USB-C to USB-C however the monitor failed to recognize the connection. I've gone back to hdmi from the mini to the monitor and now looking for a hub to buy and attach to my mac mini. So much for a "clean" look. I'll see if ASUS support gets back to me. They escalated the problem although it seems to be pretty common so I'm not sure why I am still waiting after 5 days. Thanks again for your help.
Thanks I thought of that as well but no luck getting usb functionality out of the monitor using the usb-c. The monitor simply does not "see" the connection. I have tried several different cables with no success.
Thank you. I'll order up a TB/USB-C to DisplayPort cable and see what happens. Stay tuned.
You're welcome.
That doesn't work either. But thank you.
