Hello! 

I have an RTX 3080 and an Apple Studio Display. I did want to use the CAC-1557 to connect the Thunderbolt4 on the Studio Display with the RTX 3080 Displayport Output. 

In parallel, I run a VR set. 

Right now, sometimes it works. But when I restart the computer, nothing works (even a standard DP Display). 

 

Has anyone solved this riddle yet? Is there another wire I should use?

 

Thank you, 

 

Jens

Does it also happen when the VR set is not connected?

Yes it does. 

The handshake of the Nvidia card with the screen is the problem: 

  • Another screen needs to be present 
  • The cable needs to be plugged in to the screen first (having the pc stacked away I never tried that before) 
  • The cable needs to be plugged in to the video card second.
  • Then, I can unplug the helping screen.
  • When I reboot I need to crawl under the desk and start over the charade.

I guess the wire is not to be blamed, but the windows drivers.. My Lenovo Laptop has two Thunderbolt output and a USB-C with DP alternate mode. Studio display works using a TB4 wire (including Webcam, Audio) on the USB-C but not on the Thunderbolt 4 (which results in a black screen, but being listed in the TB4 tool as properly connected)
