question
Would this work with a single MSI GTX1080 GPU, and if so could that GPU run two monitors
Yes it would work with your 1080, I am running it on my 1070 for a while now and it works great. I am unsure about dual monitor though, I have heard that dual monitor on a 1080 has problems with stuttering and other things.

question
Can I run 2 of these on the 2013 Mac Pro in 5k?
I do not have a Mac Pro but from all of my additional research after purchasing the Dell 5k UltrsSharp monitor it appears to me that this is the only product from Apple that would be able to power the 5K monitor. My 2015 Macbook Pro overheats and shuts down in 5k mode. The power it takes to run 5k monitors can only be achieved in setups like the Mac Pro but my research was based upon the new 2016 Mac Pro. And unfortunately Apple can only answer questions about Apple and Dell will only answer questions about their products so hopefully if you have any problems you get a technical representative that breaks company protocol and helps solve any problems. This was the case for me I have as I have a 2015 MacBook Pro Retina Display and I wanted to not loose resolution on an second monitor when working on my laptop. Although, both companies promote their compatibility the truth is it only works in a lower resolution mode which I could have achieved in a monitor that would have cost me $1,500 less. The monitor is awesome just make sure you have system that the power to run two 5k monitors.

question
description says you need two cables connection to get full 5k resolution. What cables are needed for a mid 2014 MacBook Pro Retina using latest edition of El Capitan 10.11.2?
You use 2x mini display (thunderbolt style) to Display Port. It comes with all the cables you need. Check google for computer compatiblity.

question
Does the MiniDisplay port double as a Thunderbolt 2 port?
It does not have Thunderbolt capability. A Thunderbolt port can be used as a mini displayport though.

Is it compatible with iMac 27 5K retina ? Will it flicker ?
Providing you are running OS X Yosemite v10.10.3 or later with a Mac Pro 2013, 5k iMac (late 2014 or newer) or a MacBook Pro with a R9 M370x GPU the display is compatible, and will not flicker.
