I just acquired a Mac Studio Ultra and tried to connect it to my NEC PA322UHD Monitor using the Displayport cable out of the monitor to the Mac Studio USB-C port using the Apple Thunderbolt 2 to Thunderbolt 3 adapter. No dice. So, I connected the monitor back to my 2013 Mac Pro using the same cable, and suddenly the native resolution of the monitor, 3840x2160, was no longer available. The max resolution was limited to 1920x1080. After trying a whole bunch of things like resetting the PRAM and unplugging both the computer and the monitor, nothing worked. Strange, the Displayport cable was working just fine until I tried to use it to hook up the new Mac Studio to the NEC. However, I managed to find an HDMI cable that was lying around and hooked up the Mac Pro to the monitor with the HDMI cable. Voila, the native resolution reappeared on the monitor! Great, I will use the HDMI cable to connect the Mac Studio, as it has an HDMI port. No such luck...no signal appeared on the monitor. A blank screen. So, I am now 0 for 2 in connecting the Mac Studio. Is this all a diabolical plot by Apple to force me into thinking I have to buy a new Apple XDR Pro or Mac Studio display? The only option left is to buy a Displayport/USB-C cable with no adapter and see if that works.
BTW, I was on the phone with NEC Tech Support a few times today, and they confirmed that the PA line of monitors is being discontinued. I gather the new Mac Studio Display and even the XDR Pro display are not really ideal for color critical photo editing. Apart from the Eizos, I hear about lots of issues with the Benq, ASUS, and LG alternatives.
