Compatibility of Alienware 38 Curved Gaming Monitor AW38121DW with Mac Mini

Before I make my purchase, I want to know if these two pieces of hardware are compatible. Can anyone help me?

There's no reason to think they won't be compatible. Monitors are a standardized affair.

It's going to produce a picture on it just fine.


Depending on which Mac mini you are referring to, it might not output at the 144Hz the monitor supports though, but it will work with it at 60Hz at its native resolution most likely.

No reason, one would think. Haha. I’ve had issues with monitors and my iMac in the past. Also, Apple phone agent told me that the monitor has a USB-C (or Thunderbolt) port. It doesn’t. 🙁


The monitor is a gift. The mini is my purchase.

I’m going to trust that this is going to be serviceable with the same philosophy you suggest. Thx
