Bump.
so do I need to buy a new cable or not?

Absolute state
>biggest announcement in tech this year
we already have 1080p@240hz with dp1.4
no need for more
>1080p
Hey is it 2012¿
because 4k isn't possible at 120Hz+ let alone with HDR on a single GPU that doesn't cast like a car
kys br tn-nigger
>not having virtual link
Why yes I have a 2080ti how could you tell
There's no point to be excited for this right now, it's still going to be years until it's common and usable in the real world. This announcement won't fix all those crippled "4K 144Hz" or "3440x1440 200Hz" monitors and it's going to be a long while until proper replacements are out.
still maybe in like 2022 we'll finally get non meme non-ultrawide uncompressed high refresh-rate 4k HDR monitors.
THIS KILLS THE HDMI 2.1 MEME
daily reminder that first cards supporting hdmi 2.1 will be out in 2020 and displayport 2.0 not earlier than 2021
hdmi 2.1 will beat it by 2 years minimum to market
you dont even get compression today despite it is dp 1.4 spec, your gpu downgrades chroma output if you want high frame rate on 4k
>beating the jews
I don't think so
The difference is hdmi 2.1 is in devices today. Displayport's spec is done, I doubt companies have even started reading the documentation much less working on hardware
And like DP 1.4 it will be available on no TV only monitor, a niche.
1440p is better.
8K is not even a thing yet but they already thinking of bringing resolutions beyond 8K. Why?
Future backward compatibility
Seriously, why even go beyond 8K? It'll consume too much power and there's no reason, at all, to go beyond 4K. We still lack content for 4K.
Marketing
AFucking a FINAPLY!
Progress and technologies. Why do we need to stop?
Only if you have above 1k in the bank.
Pcie 6.0 is bigger.
I would have a 8K monitor already if the one out there didn’t need dual porting.
Because it’s there
A monitor with true DP 2.0 will also easily be over 1k
Because it's counter productive. For one, it'll consume too much power. Even if this tech is 10 years away that doesn't make it viable.
For what reason you need a monitor or TV that's beyond 4K?
>tfw still on 1366x768
How poor are you to give one shit about display power? And 10 years? Try 3.
I have great eyesight and it’s way better to look at and I need a lot of screen estate.
I've been indoctrinated that display progress lies in less power consumption. Now they are throwing all of it out the window.
>16K
IT HAS TO STOP
You didn't say an use case because you don't have any.
>16K horizontal
>8K vertical
WHY
>I’ve been indoctrinated
Wasting power is the height of technological luxury: see CRT.
>16K
That’s actually approaching eyesight, the only area that might go higher would be VR.
It will be cheaper depending on size. If you want 8k 144hz 60fps or crazy things like that it will be and you are not wrong. But 4k 144hz 60fps and the 2.0 port will be much less expensive come 2020. At least in affordable range.
I need a 40” 8K monitor, not a 16K that doesn’t exist.
>77 Gbps
I wonder if DP could be used as an alternative to Thunderbolt.
In the andandtech article it says it's merged technology with thunderbolt 3.0.
Damn. Does that mean every DP 2 port is automatically a Thunderbolt port? That would be massive.
CRT is old tech. Now we have power efficiency with LED backlighting and OLED. 16K would just shit on it. There only reason I could see for it is just so we can research even more tech to reduce power consumption and to put pressure on GPU manufacturers to innovate but with the rise of raytracing FPS are going to be hindered and raytracing should be the way to go. 16k is beyond ridiculous.

Haha
>Seriously, why even go beyond 8K? It'll consume too much power and there's no reason, at all, to go beyond 4K. We still lack content for 4K.
Canned content only matters for TVs. Desktop computer monitors can use this, they're already capped at the pixels*refresh limits of old cables.
Definitely bigger than your meme shilling wars intel vs amd and who has 2% more speed
Wtf. 2.0 REQUIRES active cabling?
CPU shit is more relevant than a new DP spec imo
DP 2.0 is only relevant on monitors that are actually going to need it so only relegated to the ultra high end
New CPUs affect the low, mid and high ends of the market
>still no microled and it's going to be 2020 in 6 months
>still no cheap miniled panels
>still no 4k 144 hz monitors at normal price ranges
>still no solution to IPS cancer panels (backlighting etc)
>still no solution to VA's retarded smear
giving out the panel patents to chinks was a big mistake because they are clearly retarded and can't do anything right
