Hey Product Hunt! While reviewing 5K/6K monitors for RetinaDesk, the same three reader questions kept coming up: will this monitor actually look sharp on my Mac, can my cable really carry 5K 60Hz, and how many displays can my M-chip Mac drive? So we built three small free tools that answer them precisely: a PPI/Retina checker with a live pixel-grid preview, a cable bandwidth calculator covering HDMI/DisplayPort/USB-C/Thunderbolt, and an Apple Silicon external display lookup covering 52 Mac variants sourced from Apple's own specs. No accounts, no ads, everything runs in your browser. Would love your feedback!
