derBackfisch123 I can't speak for AMD but Nvidia support of DisplayPort is shitty to non-existent. I have to use it because my 4K monitor predates HDMI 2.0 but the majority of times my GPU fails to transmit a signal via it after the BIOS screen, my motherboard beeps and gives a GPU error code. About 1 in 5 times I can boot first time without having to reset immediately. The only workaround I've found is to connect both HDMI and DP, set it to extend displays, then turn off the HDMI "monitor". Now every time I boot it uses HDMI until it gets into Windows, then extends, then switches input. It does mean having two cables between my GPU and monitor after all, and it's not an elegant solution at all, but until this infant technology is actually supported this is the kind of shit we just have to live with. Edit: this is on a GTX 970, by the way, so not exactly ancient tech. These issues are current as of October 2014.

Thank you for clearing up a lot of questions for us. We are a digital signage company and at present have 14 locations in operation. We are now getting inquirers about multi screens at some of our location. Great job explaining DisplayPort connections. We are presently working on a 2x2 video wall for a up coming show here in our area.

Some things you forgot to mention: 1. HDMI also supports Ethernet and control signals (CEC). 2. DVI-D actually supports audio, but it is not in the standard. 3. What about HDBaseT as a display port? Why is it not used on computer cards yet? The cable used in HDBaseT is much simpler since it is a standard RJ45 connector and uses standard Cat5/6 patch cables. Not to mention you can have cables up to 100m with HDBaseT (in some cases 300m). Supports 8k resolutions, supports power over cable (PoC), supports digital audio, supports ethernet and carries two way control signals like RS232 and IR, all trough the same cable...

They are actually still very widespread as f.e. CNC machines, vending machines... still use them as their main (often only) connection for programming. Lots of consumer equipment also have some sort of serial connector (be it the typical 9-pin or something proprietary) for diagnosis and firmware upgrades by technicians. That's why you'll still find ancient computers (sometimes as old as 386's running DOS or Win3.1!) in professional environments and many technicians carry very bulky laptops with all kinds of connections.

Great vids man, quick question. If I use a DisplayPort to a HDMI adapter, in order to use HDMI into my TV, will that limit the output of the DisplayPort? To ask another way, will it be the same as if I used a DisplayPort to DisplayPort?

DisplayPort doesn't run in fps like HDMI but rather in maximum bandwidth transferring data in packets. If the connector is short or has a repeater for longer range then the bandwidth will be high like Ethernet and allow theoretically any fps/hrz on a monitor to be set. (as long as the monitor supports it) (longer cables pick up more EMI thus lower the bandwidth without repeaters) As i'm typing I am using DisplayPort to drive my ASUS VG248QE at 1920x1080@144hz

@CelmorSmith

9 жыл бұрын

You need to differentiate between FPS and Refresh rate, your monitors probably support only up to 60 Hz so that's what determines the needed bandwith. The requirements of bandwidth and the supported bandwidth of each DP version can be seen hear, you can calculate the needed bandwidth for every resolution and refresh rate yourself with a formula: width * height * refresh_rate * bits_per_pixel * 1.1 Example: 1920 * 1080 * 60 * 24 * 1.1 ~= 3.3 Gb/s DisplayPort 1.0 allows a maximum of 8.64 Gbit/s... If you want to daisy chain all 3 monitors (if the monitors support daisy chain) displayport 1.2 is enough for 4 * 1080p monitors 60Hz Source: forum.videohelp.com/threads/363933-Displayport-supportet-resolutions-refresh-rates www.displayport.org/cables/driving-multiple-displays-from-a-single-displayport-output/ en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DisplayPort#Technical_specifications

Simon WoodburyForget In a streaming PC I did. Meh, I just made a BS excuse, got a refund and picked up a GTX 950. In case I ever want to do some couch gaming.

I got at my graphic card a DVI-D Dual and have a Dell monitor with a displayport.. Now I have buyed a cable only from DVI-D to Displayport but that is not working and no wakeup is comming from my monitor. In HDMI everthing works fine. Do you know what kind of adapter I need to get this working? Thanks for support kindly regards Hank from the Netherlands

im getting a msi geforce gtx 980ti and was wondering if i could set up a 3 screen setup with displayport. the card holds 3 displayport outputs but i want you all to tell me if i should just get displayport to hdmi cable? its kind of weird because i dont personally know to much about displayport. but a lot about hdmi.

VGA Master Race CRT Master Race You just can't beat a CRT monitor: better blacks, no input lag, higher refresh rates, much better response time than lcds

displayport is better

I use jack 3.5 out in my monitor, it's much easier to access when I want to plug headphones than moving my desk and pluging it to back of my pc.

My problem is the exact opposite i only have a vga port mainly because i have a pc with a grapics card. Is it a problem i cant connect the hdmi from the gpu to the monitor?

Atm, Displayport for my 1440p 144hz monitor because DVI couldn't get up to 144hz.

Nice, perhaps it was just my monitor, I couldn't get mine to find a 144hz setting without switching to displayport. xd

I have a gaming laptop which has only an HDMI 1.4 and was wondering if I could connect an HDMI 1.4 cord from it to an adapter that has an HDMI 1.4 input which has a displayport 1.2 input with another cord for the displayport for my monitor that has a 144hz refresh rate will it work? Thanks!

My rx480 8gb can do 4k at 60hz and supports display port 1.4 (not covered here). I went and purchased a samsung uhd monitor that supports 1.1 and 1.2 with varying hertz. When I use my displayport cord on the 1.1 it'll only allow up to 2k resolution for some reason. While 1.2 setting will allow for 4k it produces sporadic screen flicker during 4k gaming sessions. This is also with the "free sync" option activated on both the monitor and the Amd crimson interface. Any suggestions on how to fix this?

Im using a DVI to VGA connector on my 980 TI and its connected to my old lcd with a VGA cable is that the reason for some flickering in some games? Should i get a new monitor ? :)

1920x1080 DVI R9 270x I find DVI (in my experience) much better than HDMI.

I'm using a VGA

Question so if u use a hdmi adapter on the displayport and plug it in to your ps4 can you get the 144hz out of your monitor

I'm using a DVI-D from LYNDA high quality cable at 1980x1080 with spyder 4 calibrated Dell ST2420L monitor. Will I get a noticeable benefit if I switch to high quality HDMI cable? Thanks for taking the time.

Echooooooooooo

Just unify the digital standards already. Make an a/v equivalent of USB, where anything connects to anything else.

+PongoXBongo That's what DisplayPort is, and just like USB its an open standard, but a large collection of comapnies wanted to collect royalties on the cable and be able to impose DRM on intermittent signals in the off chance someone wanted to use specialized hardware to screencap data, so they grouped together to create the consortium which gave us HDMI. When you support HDMI you essentially contribute to the move away from an open standard.

my monitor doesnt have displayport would it make sense to use a display port to dvi or just keep my dvi?

I want to connect a windows based laptop with a display port to a late 2012 27” IMac with a Thunderbolt one port. I have a cable that connects the two but cannot get them to work. Any tips?

I'm really confused on HDMI. Firstly, you say that HDMI 1.4 runs at 30 hertz? Or is that only for 4K? If I'm connecting a laptop (let's assume it's HDMI 1.4) to my 120 hertz tv. Am I not getting the TV's full potential? I'm working on a new computer now, with a Asus Z170-A motherboard, which just says 1xHDMI port. Is 2.0 the norm now? How do I know if I have 2.0 on my laptop? Will my new motherboard have it? Thanks for all this help
