Want to connect an old DVI monitor to newer Mac with USB-C? Here’s one way to do it

The 2015 and later MacBook uses USB-C for USB 3 and DisplayPort. The newer MacBook Pro and iMac models pass Thunderbolt 3 over USB-C, along with DisplayPort and other standards.

I recently updated our best advice and knowledge for Apple’s Mini DisplayPort and Thunderbolt 2 displays. For older Apple monitors that relied on DVI—sometimes requiring a dual-link DVI setup for its largest displays—I had yet to find a solution in a single product, with adapters, or from readers who had solved it.

That’s changed! Macworld reader Michael linked together an adapter and a dock for his 30-inch dual-link DVI Cinema Display. And it works!
