Hi everyone, I have this monitor: https://www.apple.com/chde/studio-display/specs/ How can I connect it to my workstation? Motherboard: ASUS PRO WS WRX90E-SAGE SE GPU: PNY NVIDIA RTX 4000 Ada Could you also recommend a specific cable or adapter that is known to work reliably with this setup? Thanks in advance for your help.

I was able to do some research and the Apple Studio Display actually requires Thunderbolt, not USB-C-DP Alt-Mode. A picture via Alt-Mode can work in rare cases, but only to a limited extent (mostly 4K). 5K, camera, speakers, USB hub, brightness and updates do not work without Thunderbolt. For full function you need a Thunderbolt add-in card + Thunderbolt 4 cable. This cable would be a better fit because, according to the manufacturer, it is bidirectional and can therefore also transmit the signal from DP to USB-C: https://www.digitec.ch/de/s1/product/digitus-displayport-usb-typ-c-2-m-videokabel-21143432
