9/4/2023 0 Comments Hdmi versions 4k![]() ![]() DisplayPort, on the other hand, wasn't designed for the same purposes as HDMI and therefore primarily only supports monitors and PCs. ![]() Similarly, game consoles, PCs, streaming devices, and projectors. If you own a modern TV, you'll probably find it has an HDMI port. HDMI standards are supported by almost all home audio/video devices. So, if you have an NVIDIA graphics card, you'll want to opt for a DisplayPort monitor with compatible technologies like the LG 27GN800-B Ultragear. The trouble is, only DisplayPort monitors support NVIDIA's G-Sync and AMD's FreeSync HDMI can currently only offer support for FreeSync. You'll notice that gaming monitors tend to display these supported technologies in their specifications, like the Acer Nitro XV282K which supports AMD FreeSync. AMD and NVIDIA have their own VRR technologies AMD uses FreeSync and NVIDIA uses G-Sync. To counter this issue, VRR was introduced, allowing your display to refresh as and when needed, matching that of your console or PC. If your display and PC/console are out of sync, it will result in something called screen tearing. When playing a game, you'll notice that your refresh rate fluctuates depending on the actions on-screen. Thus, it's a term mostly used around gaming. VRR (Variable Refresh Rate) enables your display to adjust its refresh rate depending on the frame rates from your PC or game console. However, HDMI 2.0 falls behind somewhat against DisplayPort 1.4 it supports 4K at 60Hz and HDR, whereas DisplayPort 1.4 supports 4K at 120Hz, 8K at 60Hz, and HDR. Therefore, it's common for users to opt for high-performance HDMI 2.0 monitors or monitors that support DisplayPort 1.4. The trouble is, there is a distinct lack of monitors that are compatible with DisplayPort 2.0, and few affordable HDMI 2.1 monitors are available. Related: HDR Formats Compared: HDR10, Dolby Vision, HLG, and Technicolor It has a higher maximum bandwidth compared to HDMI 2.1, almost tripling that of DisplayPort 1.4 at 77.73Gbps. This standard supports 8K resolutions at 60Hz, HDR-10, and 10K resolutions at 60Hz. Similarly, the latest DisplayPort specification is DisplayPort 2.0. To make the most out of HDMI 2.1, you'll need to invest in an Ultra High Speed HDMI Cable like the Highwings High-Speed HDMI Braided Cord. It's also capable of displaying 10K content and dynamic HDR formats up to 48Gbps. At the time of writing, the latest HDMI specification is HDMI 2.1a. ![]()
