Connect a display to Mac Pro
The Thunderbolt 3 (USB-C) ports 
support video output when an Apple MPX Module graphics card is installed. (A third-party GPU doesn’t enable video on Thunderbolt 3 (USB-C) ports .) The HDMI 2.0 port on your Mac Pro also supports video. You can use an external display, a projector, or an HDTV with your Mac Pro.
Note: Mac Pro has at least one HDMI 2.0 port and four Thunderbolt 3 (USB-C) ports. The Thunderbolt 3 (USB-C) ports on your Mac Pro are managed by two controllers—one controls the two ports on top of Mac Pro and one controls the two ports on the I/O card on the back of the computer. There are additional controllers and HDMI ports if Apple MPX Module graphics cards are installed.
