[QUOTE="pigoo3, post: 1750944, member: 56379"] I'm not so sure about that. Default resolution should be 5120 x 2880...5K (should say this in the "About This Mac" info area...and in the Display Preferences area). For a 2nd external display connected to the iMac...maximum resolution for it is 3840 x 2160. This is called 4K Ultra HD. Here's a couple review articles for the Late 2014 27" 5K iMac which definitely mention the 5K resolution (5120 x 2880).
