Strange behavior with 27 " Apple Cinema Display

Overall picture quality is decent. However, the more I used it with a 27" Apple Cinema display (not Thunderbolt display), the more so I noticed strange little issues.. Some UI elements appear slightly blurry (text boxes in some apps but not all) It's also not a specific spot on the screen as these blurry parts are moved to where I moved the window .Then I noticed that if I moved the mouse pointer and then stopped, after about a second the pointer went into a slightly blurry state.Some window shadows also shifted slightly when you moved the mouse.I'm not exactly sure what the explanation for this is, except maybe macOS is trying to fix signal issues or how it interprets the monitor it's trying to display through the adapter.i attributed this to problems with new Macs and tried to connect to an old monitor via a USB-C adapter. But when I went back to my old Mini DisplayPort to USB-C adapter, I don't see any of these issues like this one.

Pros
  • Enjoy 4K at 60Hz
Cons
  • Expensive
