technology and computing desktop publishingWhich is better DVI or DisplayPort?
Regarding this, is a DisplayPort better than DVI?
DVI is capable of 144hz refresh rates, so it's agood choice if you have a 1080p 144hz monitor. This is especiallytrue for gamers who have an FPS that is higher than 60. Ifyou want 4K, though, you'll need to go with DisplayPort orHDMI.
In this way, is DVI same as DisplayPort?
If you're looking to connect a computer to a monitor,there's no reason not to use DisplayPort. The cables areroughly the same price as HDMI. The video signal overDVI is basically the same as HDMI. DVIgenerally doesn't do audio (it varies).
The interface is primarily used to connect avideo source to a display device such as a computer monitor, and itcan also carry audio, USB, and other forms of data.DisplayPort was designed to replace VGA, DVI, andFPD-Link.
