Which monitor are you running dp on right now?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 11 months ago (2 children)

I have 5 PCs and 8 monitors in my home and they are all using DP except one that's really old and uses DVI. DP is the standard connector for PC monitors.

What do you think most people globally use dp or hdmi?

On PC monitors? DP.

Everything in my home uses HDMI.

I also don't use monitors. LG CX OLED as main monitor, sometimes hook a PC up to the regular LED bedroom tv.

No interest in using displayport, HDMI is fine for the vast majority of use cases. Not sure why we need competing connectors. Frankly, not sure why we don't all just switch to USB-C long term.

There's just no reason to not standardize with USB-C for every display.

Most of them? What kind of question is this?
