ATI R700 to have DisplayPort

Posted on Thursday, August 02 2007 @ 3:20 CEST by Thomas De Maesschalck
The ATI R700 GPU will be one of the first GPUs with DisplayPort support, FUD Zilla reports:
As HDMI is a dual link DVI interface with audio capability, it should not be hard to add HDMI over DVI support on the list of features, but the main connector should be the Display port.

VESA has been pushing its standards for years and it looks like this is unlikely to change in 2008 and for years to come. It looks like Nvidia’s high end cards will also go Display port, but it is too soon to tell.
