Apple Mac pro does not have the drivers for 4096×2160 at 60 Hz even with the 700D video. You have to run a bootleg windows software. How do we fix that?

#42So: HDMI and DisplayPort can't do 4k@60Hz without hacks. HDMI 2 is OK, but there are no video cards that do HDMI 2. DisplayPort 1.3 is also OK, but there are no monitors or video cards that use it. DisplayPort 1.2 can do 4k by pretending the monitor is two 1920x2160 monitors and using two DisplayPort streams. How this interacts with your video card depends on how many hacks your driver vendor has implemented. Linux w…
DisplayPort 1.2 can do a single stream 4k@60Hz display. The first batch of 4k displays to market used the tiling hack to get around some other limitations but these have been resolved in the most recent display iterations. ASUS PB287Q and Samsung U28D590D are both single stream 4K/60Hz using DisplayPort 1.2

Got the PB287Q here, it does do 4K/60Hz on windows but still waiting for support on Linux. Max is 30Hz on Linux as of date, (pretty sure, I googled like a mad man).
