display port sisters....

>>105822232 (OP)
I'm not homosexual enough to use HDMI

>>105822232 (OP)
>Now supports 16K video
Well, guess they're right that it's ahead of its time because who outside of video production uses 16K video?

>>105822232 (OP)
>16k
Can't wait for PS6 to offer 340p upscaled to 16k at 0.2fps with framegen.

>HDMI
You know hdmi still can't daisy chain monitors off a single connection also we don't need HDMI considering how fast thunderbolt usb-c is and the fact that displayport is about to get a huge upgrade HDMI needs to die it's not a solid connector like displayport which locks in when you plug it in

>>105822232 (OP)
Useless.
I only need 1080p.

>>105822232 (OP)
every other year the two standards update and pass the other. no one cares, you use HDMI for TVs and DisplayPort for computers. nothing is going to change on that front.

>nothing about DisplayPort
I don't care.

>>105822232 (OP)
who fucking cares there's a few differential pairs in a fucking cable with some connector shape why tf are there still more than one is beyond my understanding

>>105822232 (OP)
VGA chads cant stop winning.

>>105822232 (OP)
why do we need 10 different ways to output image to display

>>105823646
What do you mean? For consumer use there's only two.

>>105823656
HDMI Type A
HDMI Type C
HDMI Type D
HDMI Type E
DisplayPort
Mini DisplayPort
USB-C DisplayPort Alt-Mode
Thunderbolt 3 / 4
Apple Thunderbolt 1/2
SlimPort / MyDP
Mobile High-Definition Link (MHL)
VGA
DVI-D
DVI-I / DVI-A
RF Coax
Composite Video (RCA)
S-Video (Mini-DIN-4)
Component YPbPr (RCA × 3)
SCART
BNC RGBHV
SDI (BNC)
HDBaseT (RJ-45)
Optical HDMI / DisplayPort
SMPTE Fiber Hybrid

>HDMI connector sizes
Duh. A fullsize HDMI port on a phone would be obnoxious. It's still the same way to output image to display.
>miniDP
Same deal.
>USB C
Just another form of miniDP but more useful. Like eSATA vs eSATAp
>the rest
outdated or not consumer level tech

>>105822232 (OP)
Nothing even takes advantage of full bandwidth HDMI 2.1 except high end graphics cards, and even then it's rare they even need 48gbps
What's the fucking point?

>>105823329
displayport's locking is a bad thing, not a good thing
if someone trips over a cable it should harmlessly come out of the port, not stay locked in and causing the port and any attached components to be violently jerked

>>105823706
why we cannot just settle with 1 connector (type-c) and scrap everything else? since it works for all sizes

>>105823718
>What's the fucking point?
Now it's there for when more things can take advantage of full bandwidth.

>>105823725
If we settled on the locking version I'd be fine, even with the single screw version. But if we settled on type C we almost certainly wouldn't go for the good version because of course not.
