Following new "Using 4K displays..." doc but iMac doesn't work as described
Recently there was quite a lot of positive chatter as Apple updated its 4K support (see Using 4K displays and Ultra HD TVs with your Mac - Apple Support).
The above document, last amended late-May 2015, appears to supersede the original specs documents regarding resolution support of several Macs including the iMac (27-inch, Late 2013 and later) of which we own several. The document clearly states that the iMac (27-inch, Late 2013 and later) supports the following.
With OS X Yosemite v10.10.3, most single-stream 4K (3840x2160) displays are supported at 60Hz operation.
We own this model of iMac with various GPUs including the maxed out NVIDIA GeForce GTX 780M 4096 MB and in NO CASES can we get it working 4K/UHD @ 60Hz. The very best we've been able to do is to force the monitors to use Multi-Stream Transport where by we can get 4K @ 30Hz (which is barely useable). The main 4K monitor we're trying to use is the Dell P2715Q (which works fine when connected to a MacBook Pro Retina) but not as stated in the document on the iMacs. With single-stream the iMac can only achieve 2560 x 1440 as per its original specs.
Have Apple not released the required update yet for iMacs? Is the document wrong when it comes to the iMac (27-inch, Late 2013 and later) and it therefore should be updated accordingly to avoid confusion? To my understanding it would seem that Thunderbolt 2 would be required connect via DisplayPort 1.2 to achieve 4K @ 60Hz? The iMac (27-inch, Late 2013 and later) are all Thunderbolt 1 (other than the Retina 5K) therefore I don't understand the inclusion of the iMac (27-inch, Late 2013 and later) in the document at all.
Please can Apple clarify as we would love to get this working so we can test our Retina apps.
