No 5k thunderbolt display?

I'm just buying the LG UM95 34UM95 and calling it a day. Should work fine with my nMP.

Do let us know how it works. Also, I'd be interested in the cost. Apple has been VERY fair with respect to pricing in Canada. I can't say the same for many other suppliers.

Thanks

i just wants thunderbolt 2 & USB 3.0 and new design like iMac. apple thunderbolt display is launched over 3 year. i'm waiting that a long long time.

I just purchased the LG 31MU97 4K display. Works great - still figuring out how to get it to do full 4K resolution on the 2013 Mac Pro but the overall feel, color and general look of the monitor blows away the 30" Cinema Display that I have been using. Part of this decision was made after going into the Apple store and playing around with the new 5K iMac in store and comparing it to the other monitors. I honestly felt that the screen - while nice - was not making me feel like I would be missing anything buying the LG. I went in to Fry's to buy the LG - MU95 and they had just received one of these MU97 4K monitors in - so I bought this one instead.

Might I be so bold as to ask you how much you paid?

I'm leaving Canada in the morning for Florida and when I return in Dec I might just want to bring one back.

I must say it does bother me that Apple has ignored us. In my case I don't need a 4k but I sure would like the USB 3 hub.

I'm going to have to price this monitor in Canada. May be considerably more. Many years ago Apple adopted a practice that has been very fair and the Canadian prices basically reflect the foreign exchange difference and very little more or less.

BTW, did you look at this model? 34UM95-P

Price was $1399 + tax. I looked at the other lgs there and decided on this one since I am posting a 4 k movie later this month. I like it and so far am happy with it Though I can't seem to get it to go full 4K on the Mac Pro. I have another thread here going about that in the monitor section now. It seems to me like there needs to be an update to the software as the monitor keeps displaying "set computer to 4096 to get optimal resolution" however there is no setting for that in the system > display> settings tab. I think it needs an apple support update. Otherwise- love it so far.

There is a thread in RedUser that mentions an "option click" command that may be helpful for the LG

Cool thanks for that link. I know about the option click thing - it is in the apple literature - but the option for 4096 is still not there. I have been using switch X but honestly the 3840 x 2160 resolution is as high as I can get it with apple display pref's. I'm fine with that for now - as the difference between 3840 x 2160 and 4096 x 2160 is minimal.

Let's hope a future OS X software update helps to "resolve" this issue...

This could be funky, but there's a thread on macrumors forums indicating how to get 4096x2160 using SwitchResX:

I have a ASUS PB287Q 4 k display --hooked to my iMac

I can not get 60HZ --only 30HZ so I have crappy color

I have 2013 iMac any one with idea on how to get better

qulity monitor--It is so disapointing

Apple needs to do an update to the AMD video cards to support all of the new 4K monitors that are coming out. As I've stated before on the other thread - I am using my monitor at 3840 x 2160 without any additional software and it looks great at native 60hz. The extra 256 pixels that I am missing will come in time and are not inhibiting my workflow in any way.

I've decided to go with a Dell U2713HM that will provide 2560 x 1440 resolution (same as my MBPro) with a TB to display cable.

Price with sales tax will be 1/3rd of the price of a reconditioned Apple TB Display.

2560 x 1600 monitors on eBay are fairly inexpensive and come from South Korea. The only real issue with them are the dead pixels they say exist, no more than 4 dead RGB pixels. But, for about $400 it may be a solution.

I agree that a 5K iMac needed a 5K display with Thunderbolt 3.

However, regardless of how 'bad' Apple deals with its most ardent followers, we always stay loyal, yes?
