what the fuck is display port

...

.. HDMI for tv, DP for pc.

Doesn't fucking matter. Not much of a difference between the two.

Display Port wins simply because it's open and not Jewish.
If only TVs supported it.

DP for my 144Hz monitor

Whatever ports your monitor have you autists. If you have both then use DP.

>If you have both then use DP.
but why?

Hdmi is worthless above 60hz, there's nothing to debate.

/thread

...

The only correct answer.

It's been here since 1987. Why discard it now :) ?

This nigga gets it

DisplayPort support 144Hz monitors, HDMI doesn't

>he fell for the 144Hz meme

SDI

I'm using this on my r9 290x and it runs great!

Your whole life seems to be a meme

>doubling the refresh rate of your monitor is a meme
nope

THE ABSOLUTE MADMAN

>for no other reasons but for muh frame in gaying
Yes, meme

>x
lmao you fell for the AMD meme

I love DP baby. Oh yes.

Now, on the topic at hand, HDMI is the way to go. Why? simply because it's the most widely used.

Fuck off nVidia tard AMD has a much better price/quality!

HDMI, bc it enables ethernet overlay and is more widely used (in Europe atleast)

I know right? Why make something you love doing better? Why buy more RAM when I can use my SSD as cache? Oh wait, why even have an SSD when I could keep my HDD? It all works after all, doesn't it?

You're so dumb I just want to punch your teeth out

No, I think I'm dumb, because I allowed myself to be trolled by you... Right? Please tell me stupid like this doesn't exist on planet earth? Right? I got trolled right? right???

AMDs high end isn't comparable to Nvidia, but other than that it's less overpriced and runs great, despite the heat/wattage issue on older models.

HDMI. It has been far more reliable than DP for me and has more features.

And because no one on Sup Forums has a monitor that requires DP 1.3 bandwidth which is the only thing it has over HDMI. HDMI 2.0 will do everything that DP 1.2 can.

Kek, Im actually in the market for a motherboard and i have to choose between z170a m5 and m7.

m5 has some shit like HDMI, but the other one had displayport, which has like 1 TV in the whole world that can connect to it.

What a waste of space, you basically pay more for less.

this

But why?

Most devices you plug into your TV, cable boxes, consoles, media boxes, etc only have HDMI available.

>has more features.
Not 144Hz

>HDMI 2.0 will do everything that DP 1.2 can.
Except 144Hz

>Relying on Intel HD

>tfw have a vive and two monitors
>don't have a second displayport cable and no shops/decent post in my country
>have to put second monitor on integrated gpu while vive and primary monitor are on my 970
>little green pixels randomly appear on second monitor and only occur when using iGPU

>using resolutions over 1080p

Wow faggot, pretty much nobody uses that, so DP is still inferior

>being this much of a faggot

Holy fuck. Yeah, meme alright. The length Sup Forumsirgins would go

That's bullshit, DP has more features, including the ability to be adapted to HDMI AND VGA, at higher resolutions/refresh rates than HDMI supports

im using hdmi@60fps on my 1080p@144hz monitor

same, i can't git my display port to work

I prefer display port but you must disable DDC/DI on Windows. Otherwise your windows may resize when the monitor turns off.

See sites.google.com/site/ebobster/stuff/displayportblanking

...

>NVIDIA will warn you that you cause damage to your screens if the EDID information is wrong for your monitor.
What a great feature.

>being this much of a retard

Let's not even bother with HDMI, let's just keep using VGA for everything.

I prefer HDMI for compatibility with nearly every display currently made. I wear glasses as is and super high refresh rates and any definition above 2k makes 0 difference to my perspective. Is 4k and 144hz superior technically? Yes. But practically with my eyes, no. Same as mp3 vs FLAC. I worked in a shop with loud pneumatic equipment and cannot tell the difference at all due to light hearing damage. To those that can, great, do what you want. But for me it makes little difference beyond compatibility.

This, desu.

The only true successor to DE15. Everything else is muh shekels

>u retard
Nice argument

>le meme

Nice argument.

>weeb shit with no input but repeating meme
I see I don't have to put much effort

The only one repeating "meme" is you.

You literally provided no reason why HDMI is better than DP.

It's actually you.

If you read my post I wasn't talking about HDMI nor DP, dip shit

Troll confirmed, this argument is pointless, thanks for wasting my time.

You are an idiot for not reading.

Enjoy your sucide

I already said DP 1.3 supports higher resolutions but who cares when no one here has a 5k monitor? You're just playing a stupid spec war. HDMI 2.2 will likely support 5k or 8k once it's popular. What are these extra features besides adapting to more popular platforms?

The features was mainly talking about are HDMI-CEC and bitstream audio.

That's wrong. HDMI 2.0 can support 144hz. Hell, I even run my 2560 x 1440hz monitor at 72hz with HDMI 1.4

>goalpost moving
>continues ad hominem with no argument in sight

>mfw this whole chain of retardation

It can only do 144 at 1080p. It can't do 144hz for 1440p

1.4 has that limitation, not 2.0

samefagging/proxyfagging.


How about you read my posts?

>turn monitor off
>resolution resets to 640x480
displayport everyone

>le samefag meme
>there are only 2 people on the internet

displayport is better, but it's ok to use HDMI for tv anyway

nice proxy, m80

doesn't the same happen with HDMI?

Display port has better specs, while hdmi has a much better adoption rate.

>there is only one person who thinks I'm retarded

The evidence says otherwise.

Meme answers welcome

just bought a 144 hz monitor for my new pc, but i've never actually seen what 144 hz looks like. Is it as big a step up as say 30 to 60 fps in gaming?

Yeah, the photoshop.

It's ok weeb man. You can keep posting the suicide picture

even if it does at least you can tape over pin 19 on hdmi

good luck taping pin 18 on dp

Yes, it's a huge deal. Don't listen to eyesight-lets that can't see the difference.

It's ok mentally deficient man. You can keep denying the reality.

>no one on Sup Forums has a monitor that requires DP 1.3 bandwidth
4k @ 60Hz is only possible with the latest DisplayPort.

It's placebo but you'll find people defending it religiously because they've invested so much into it.

I didn't believe the meme...

But playing overwatch at 144 hz... is amazing. Go from 144 to 60 and 60 looks like it is laggy.

cool. And do you think I should shell out extra for a 1070 so all my games can hit 1080/144fps or do you think that's overkill and I should just get a 480. This is my first time building a pc and i'm new on Sup Forums so sorry if that's stupid to ask

or HDMI 2.0 (but which GPUs support that?)

It's ok you can join me, delusional man.

I believe in you, not-assblasted weeb man

Wrong. HDMI 2.0 has 4k 60hz support.

Displayport has a locking mechanism, it has more features and its open-source so what the hell is the argument here

Nvidia since Maxwell and AMD since Polaris.

It's something that's felt more than seen, you suddenly realize how much input lag there was at 60fps, try something like Quake or CS GO to really feel the difference

It's not open source. It's an open standard but you still need to pay royalty of $0.20 per unit.

Only if you actually get 144 frames.

Isn't it still the lesser evil of the 2?

You're getting more out of your money with DP, right?

i should probably get a 1070 then. Fuck guess I need to not eat for a month LOL

>2016
>eating food
fuck off fatty

>you still need to pay royalty of $0.20 per unit
According to VESA (the organization behind DP) that's a false claim

>tfw I'm actually a fatty

I recently got a LG 4k monitor and I swear DP is just way more finicky. I had the same issues when I swapped from DVI to DP at 2560x1440 but needed a 35ft cable. Half of them didn't work. Now I'm finding the same issues with shorter cables at 4k. Nothing will give me the full 4k @ 60hz at 35ft.

HDMI and DVI I can go 50ft with no issues and they fully support their spec.

which monitor btw?

LG 31MU97

Biggest pain is getting support for the full 4096 x 2160 but even getting a 3840 x 2160 signal is somewhat of a pain. Everything I plug it into seems to want to operate differently from only running at 57hz or 30hz to needing to stretch a supposed 3840 x 2160 signal to a 17:9 aspect ratio.

>calling someone a weeb
>on an anime imageboard

just plugged in my display port, hope it is better than HDMI

You're a moron. Pretty much all display port cables I've seen are HDMI-out on the other end. Display and HDMI are 100% compatible.

>YFW thunderbolt was supposed to revitalize mini display port...

What a rational answer. Am I on Reddit?

I bet you work in an office and make lots of money, only to come home and fuck your hot wife. Loser.
