Teacake,
What monitor do you use ?
Just picked up a Kogan 27" ultra hd.
Looks the goods except my 4 year old Mac mini only has settings for full hd.
Any tips how to get the ultra hd setting going ?
Lol, I am on a philips thing ( an old model ) and some old LG.
About to buy 3x new ones though.
As for your mac I can't say I can help. I hate macs. Stupid.
BUT! When you say ultra, do you refer to a 4K resolution screen? Full HD is generally known as 1080p and 4K is sometimes called ultra HD.
If your rig only supports 1080p then I would suggest a new graphics card, other than that, get rid of you mac and buy a decent rig with a GPU capable of 4K output. Not sure on what model will though. Personally I would go AMD because they are cheaper and I like them, heck the 290x beats Nvidia's titan at times.
Best thing to do would be take your mac and your screen to a PC shop and ask them, they will know straight away and tell you what to buy, just get it online though, so much cheaper.
Tom.
