Hello,

Looking for some help here. Was anyone able to hook up their console to the Studio Display? (Or even a MacBook Pro?)

I know these aren’t made for gaming but that’s what I have.

Thanks!

    If it’s got an HDMI in I don’t see why it wouldn’t work. But don’t expect the steamdeck to get 60fps at 5k.

    According to the apple website, the Studio Display only supports video input via thunderbolt. As the Deck does not have thunderbolt, the connection will not work.

    I’m not 100% sure about this, but this seems most plausible to me.

    Not really something I have but it might work as a dock.

    Don’t really know if Apple puts software on those to check what was plugged in.

    I can’t see why it wouldn’t work. The specs for the display say it’s an ordinary Thunderbolt over USB-C. Have you tried just plugging it in? Should work just fine with a MacBook too even though the laptop probably can’t act a as a monitor, of course.

      Exactly, you wouldn’t even need a dock. Power, video signal, keyboard/mouse attached to the monitor, etc. should all work when connecting the Steam Deck via one USB-C cable to the Studio Display.
