Can 2 of these monitors be used with the 13 Inch 2017 Macbook Pro without touch-bar?
The Macbook Pro 13 Inch 2017 model without touch-bar only has two thunderbolt 3 ports. Can I run two of these displays at native 5k? This will use up both the ports on the Macbook, but I would have effectively gained 6 USB-C ports from the displays. Is this correct? And which of the displays would drive power to the Macbook?
