DisplayPort 1.2 vs DisplayPort 1.4 | Explained 

Much appreciated!

That's awesome to hear! That's why I wanted to make videos like this! Thank you!

Very niche

Thanks for watching!

Because 1.4a became the standard display port 2.0 won’t the standard for another 5 years if by then it isn’t just ignored and moved on to DP 3.0 by then. There’s a reason Display port 2.0 is being used for just marketing by AMD it doesn’t even exist in the monitor space and by the time it does if it ever does it will be backwards compatible to the DP 1.4a dsc . Basically it’s a nothing burger done worry about it if your gaming on a 4k 240 hz monitor today you are using DP1.4a or hdmi 2.1 … no one even thought about the video out port till AMD got the shit stomped out of them by the 4090 so when they released there next gen cards they spent more time taking about it’s Display port than it’s actual gaming performance hahaha … and if your on RU-vid there are thousands of AMD fanboys who repeat the talking points of the marketing as if it’s there own research haha. Same as the 12pin power plug for the new GPUs someone hooked up 1 -8 pin to the 12 pin adapter and then overheated one leg of the pin and took pictures to put on Reddit to claim it’s a fire hazard haha this is just there way of trying to slow down people buying Nvidia cards but it isn’t working people aren’t that stupid and if they are they can’t afford a high end GPU anyway haha no shit according to Newegg and Amazon AMD sells 1 gpu to Nvidias 50 GPUs and the main 2 AMD GPU sold are the 6600/6600xt not there high end cards . Only in RU-vid self proclaimed tech experts channels who are basically AMD marketing departments at this point haha you see this over the top love for a publicly traded company. You would think that AMD was a charity the way people on RU-vid root for them as if the company who always has had inferior products that used to be priced accordingly was more than the budget option. Nope they are still the budget option except in CPUs they are more expensive and basically at parity with Intel and that’s arguable Intel isn’t behind them that is for sure .

Display port 1.2 it's able to work up to 2560x1440p and 170hz

Have you got your answer?

Thanks!

It won’t matter unless your monitor supports it..you REALLY have to check the monitor specs and sometimes that doesn’t even help. I have an LG Ultragear nano IPS 1440p 165Hz overclockable to 180Hz and when I’m on the regular 165Hz I still don’t utilize all 32Gb, unless I turn on 10-bit color but i play games like cod where I’d rather be at an 8 bit. But as soon as i out my monitor into overclocked mode it just stays right at 32Gb/s it’s weird how these cords work. Also your GPU or iGPU has to support it too. I don’t think my 1660Ti supported 1.4 but my 2080Ti does.

No, it’s a digital signal, and the signal should arrive at the same time as any other cable, including HDMI. When people say “faster” they are referring to how much information the signal is able to carry, not how fast the signal arrives from one device to the other. Input lag largely depends on the processors within a device, and the type of monitor that the signal is being output to like a projector vs a TV, they both have different ways of outputting a signal which do cause measurable differences in latency (input lag).

1.4 cable. It’s downward compatible. And if you ever get a nee monitor you don’t need to buy a new cable

Have you got answer?

@@kingsahil2538 yes, u can

did you ever figure this out

Doesn’t matter you can use either or but I would use 1.4 if that’s the case because 1.4 is backwards compatible with 1.2 and that should qualify for all devices with display1.2 and there are no downsides to putting 1.4 into a 1.2 slot

Yes

Wow

There’s a 500Hz monitor now but its only 1080p i think

​@@Austrium1483That doesn't seem like a reasonable compromise 😂

I have a 1440p 165Hz monitor that overclocks to 180Hz and when i have it on the 165Hz mode it doesn’t use 1.4 speeds, only when i have it set to 180Hz but yes even 1.2 can handle 1080p at 165 I believe

​@@-BUGZ- i have one Long and two short beep sound when i start PC. I buy 1080p 165 Hz gigabyte monitor. I'm using with RTX 3060ti. How can I fix my issue ?

agreed

Does that monitors even support 10 bit?

1.4 its good

@jackthegamer nah it really doesn’t matter, i would personally get the 1.2 as i had the same problem with my last monitor, now my new monitor came with a Dp 1.4 and it’s always best to stick with the cables that come with your monitor but you won’t gain anything by paying more for the 1.4

@@-BUGZ- well mine doesn’t work so now what?!

@@titlepending1302 buy a new one? Not that hard to do and they are like $10

@@-BUGZ- it’s brand new with the monitor what you mean

did you ever find out? I have the same issue.

The title is labelled DisplayPort 1.2 vs DisplayPort 1.4. The video is labelled correctly, and even the thumbnail displays what the video is about. Nothing to do with HDMI. We have another video about HDMI 2.1 though I can link you

@@SabrentUSAOfficial sorry my mistake. I apologize dear.
