Does the Dell UP3216Q 4K monitor will work with the Macbook Pro retina late 2013 model at 4K 60hz? and if so what cable would be used? Thunderbolt to Display 1.2?
Thank you,

MacBook Pro (Retina, 15-inch, Late 2013)
Here are the Apple specifications regarding 4k monitors:

I would think a Thunderbolt connection would be best. I do not know what are the connection options on the Dell product.
Ciao.
The 13 inch model only supports 30 Hz and only offers full resolution (too small to work with) or 1:2 HiDPI (everything is gigantic, just like you'd expect from 1920 px on 32 inches). You can not even run it with native 1920 px to get the 60 Hz and a non-blurry image. 60 Hz do work with 2560 px though -- but then the display does the 3:2 pixel mapping, resulting in a very blurry image that isn't fun to work with. So my shot answer would be: Don't!
The 15 inch model might support 60 Hz, but the issues resulting from the very limited scaling options might still apply. There might be workarounds though: http://www.tonymacx86.com/threads/adding-using-hidpi-custom-resolutions.133254/
