[QUOTE="Seeking Answers, post: 1914312, member: 413785"] Thank you Randy, RazOrEdge and Ashwin! You inspired me to dig deeper into understanding the differences between USBC and USBC TB, as related to my issues. Thank you for clarifying! My LG 32UN880 monitors do NOT have TB inputs in the back. I was using the USBC-USBC cables that came with the monitors. So.... I see that I am underutilizing my MBP16 features by not using monitors and cables with TB capabilities. Two Questions: 1. I am guessing that there is no advantage to using TB cables if there is no TB input on the LG monitors. Or is there? 2. These LG monitors are returnable. Speaking from a PERFORMANCE mindset, is there anything of value to be gained if I swipe out my LG monitors for Apple Studio Displays? (The FaceTime camera and upgraded internal speakers are irrelevant to me) Thank you so much for your help! You are terrific resources with answers that are so difficult to find. I appreciate your time and effort in helping me! Cheers to all of you! [/QUOTE]
