Overview
USB-C to DisplayPort 1.4 Cable (6ft) is a high-performance video cable designed to connect a USB‑C / Thunderbolt 3/4 device directly to a DisplayPort monitor. It supports ultra-high resolutions like 8K@60Hz and high refresh gaming modes like 4K@144Hz (when your device and monitor support those modes), making it ideal for creators, gamers, and multi-monitor home office setups.
Key Features
- USB‑C/Thunderbolt to DisplayPort: Connect a USB‑C (DP Alt Mode) or Thunderbolt 3/4 laptop/PC to a DisplayPort display.
- DisplayPort 1.4 performance: Built for higher bandwidth video and modern DP 1.4 features on compatible hardware.
- 8K & high refresh support: Up to 8K@60Hz and up to 4K@144Hz (actual result depends on GPU, USB‑C port video support, cable length, and monitor settings).
- Great for gaming & productivity: Smooth motion for high-refresh monitors and sharp visuals for design, editing, and spreadsheets.
- Single-cable setup: Direct USB‑C to DP connection helps keep your desk clean and simple.
Common Uses
- USB‑C/Thunderbolt laptop → DisplayPort gaming monitor (high refresh)
- MacBook/Windows laptop → 4K/8K DisplayPort monitor for work
- Dock-free external monitor connection (when your USB‑C port supports video output)
- Conference room/project setup with DP displays

Important Notes (Please Read)
- USB‑C must support video (DP Alt Mode): Not every USB‑C port outputs video. If your USB‑C port is data-only, the cable will not work.
- One-way cable: This cable is for USB‑C device to DisplayPort monitor only (not DP to USB‑C display).
- 4K@144Hz needs the right hardware: Your GPU, USB‑C/Thunderbolt port, and monitor must support the required bandwidth; you may need to enable high refresh / DP 1.4 / DSC settings on your monitor.
- Mac note (gaming refresh rates): Some Mac models may not support every high refresh/resolution combination—results depend on the specific Mac/GPU and monitor.

FAQ
Will this work with Thunderbolt 3/4?
Yes. Thunderbolt 3/4 ports use the USB‑C connector and commonly support DisplayPort video output.
Why am I not getting 4K@144Hz?
Check that your USB‑C port supports DP Alt Mode, your GPU supports 4K high refresh, your monitor is set to the correct DP mode, and the refresh rate is selected in display settings.
Does it carry audio too?
DisplayPort can carry audio, but audio output depends on your device settings and monitor/audio setup.
