dvi
>>51978919
hdmi2 because it's standard.

At the moment: DisplayPort.

Converting a digital image to analog to transfer it over a cable, and back to digital to render on an LCD monitor is not simple.
>>51978919

>>51978992
DP has two of those things. If you need "universality" because your hardware has no DisplayPorts, you have poor taste in hardware.

I've only used DVI and VGA mostly. HDMI when I use go hook my old laptop onto my Tele.
I don't see any real difference between any of them at all t.b.h.
>I've never seen a display port.
>>51978953
The only reason in using this is because my monotor literally has nothing else its 1080p tho, also i have to use a vga to dvi that only works with special dvi ports, if i could use hdmi or displayport i would withoout a second thought
>>51979278
More like my opinion + personal experience, i never had any HDMI cables break on me, however i've had DisplayPort plugs deform on falling down.
Might be shit quality cable, but as far as i know about mechanics, the HDMI shape distributes the stress on the metal body equally meaning less chance of deforming
HDMI proprietary bullcrap,
manufacturers have to pay royalities to use it
so the the end consumer will pay for this

I mean it's like they included the DP port just to solve issues related to compatibility. I don't understand how it's better.
Also it takes longer for the monitor to wake up on DP.
>>51979982
scart. it's a euro thing. It carries analog rgb signals.
>>51979982

>>51980026

As a rule DP has far higher bandwidth than HDMI and most importantly is royalty free.
That and some monitors can be daisy-chained over DP.
Scart>everything
DP. Thought at the moment I'm stuck on DVI (primary monitor) and VGA (secondary screens).
>>51979930
Kill yourself.
Fucking putrid shit
>>51978919
DP. Too bad the AMD cards I've tried have had horrible issues with it.
>>51979930
The fucking worst.
They never fit properly, and the cable is always, ALWAYS going in the opposite direction you want it to go.
I'm so happy they're gone forever.

Well if you aren't going to test any limitations of an interface, then you wont see any difference.
On a cheap monitor DVI/HDMI/DP wont change much. on a 4k 120Hz panel the difference will be night and day.
>>51980026

Why all the hate for SCART?
At the time, it's picture quality was great. I wish we got it in the US. Retro gaming would've really benefited from this.
Vga: still good, nothing wrong with it, adapters avalible
DVI: good, nothing wrong with it, adapters avalible
HDMI: good, expensive, nothing wrong with it, adapters avalible
displayport: Only good for 4k monitors, expensive and expensive screens, need active adapters
DP is the worst at the moment.
>>51980253
DP as in double penetration?
>>51980279
>HDMI

VGA is fine but if displayport were more common, that would be the best of those.
>>51980292
No, dragon penis
HDMI, because I have a phone and cameras that can output mini or micro HDMI
>>51978919
Displayport
>>51980302
More expensive than VGA and DVI cables and screens for whatever reason.
>>51980267
Bingo. See all those pins they did cool stuff like auto switching input and having separate red green and blue input signals, but also having composite as a fall back. SCART kicked ass, HDMI is basically the new versiojn of it.

It's like asking what's better, pentium, i3, i5 or i7?
If you're doing low loads(1080p) then the cheapest is the best (vga)
It you're doing heavy enthusiast stuff on one machine (4k on one screen) then you'll need an i7 (DP)
>>51980395
I have a shitty monitor (got it for free) and the VGA input shows way better image than the HDMI
What was wrong with dvi, why the fuck do you faggots have to depreciate it, I don't want to buy a new monitor
whatever your screen and graphics card has
/thread
>>51980414
This makes zero sense. VGA is for CRT monitors, that's what it was designed for. Everything else should just use a digital signal with enough bandwidth.
>>51980424
Maybe the monitor came out when HDMI was young and thus it was poorly implemented.
Some really old HDMI tvs also suffer from something similar.
>>51980414
>If you're doing low loads(1080p) then the cheapest is the best (vga)
Do everyone a favour and stick to your containment generals.
>>51980414
>4k on one screen
Strictly speaking for vidya 4k doesn't need an i7 anymore than it needs an i5 as cpu usage doesn't scale with resolution.
For other workloads? Well yeah an i7 is the better chip because such workloads scale with cpu resoruces (resolution has nothing to do with it).
>>51980441
Nothing, if you have a DVI monitor and a DVI on your video card, just use it.
>>51980481

Can't see the difference so what is the point?

Yeah I just meant " heavy enthusiast stuff on one machine" as an analogy for "4k on one screen"

>were the jews responsible for this?
HDMI's main advantage was cable length. That is how it came to dominate consumer electronics.
Also things like MHL (running a 1080p output and 7.1 audio from a smarthpone microUSB) are exclusive to HDMI. Again lower end consumer electronics drive this industry.
With that said HDMI 2.0 is fine for 4k @ 60hz 4:4:4 and that is good enough (for now).
>>51978919
The digital ones.
Unfortunately, they all have some kind of DRM scheme and you have to pay a lots of schmeckels to build stuff with them to e.g. VESA.
>>51980183
>gone forever.

>mfw I still use VGA for my main monitor
No fucks given.
>>51981059
Also HDMI can be run over cat 5.
At our university and other places that run a ton of video cables the electricians simply pull cat 5 (or use existing Ethernet cables) and you can get HD virtually anywhere.
Even in my home this is how I get my satellite HDTV to every room of the house. I had roughed in a fuckload of cat 5 back in the day and I used some of those for HDTV. It is very inexpensive to do it this way, in terms of both labor and cable cost.
>>51980022
Fuck you i like space raiders.
>>51981188
I use component video with my PS2
>>51980183

Only DVI or VGA. HDMI and DisplayPort both enable you to watch HDCP content, thus empowering the industries to take away your freedoms.

This is without any doubt the worst video connector ever

>>51978919
Displayport is superior, however there are many usage scenarios where there is no difference between any of the three digital signal formats.
VGA is legacy/deprecated, only use it when no other alternative is present or you are attempting to present historical accuracy.
>>51980211

>>51980395
I don't think there is anyone out there with that mindset.

This. DisplayPort has better bandwidth, open standard, allows for daisychaining and 'push' sync rate more easily (i.e. without nVIDIA proprietary G-sync).
>>51979930
While SCART was dreadful in itself, it often did mean you got real RGB connectors in there: that's the best analogue connection you'll find. Unfortunately horizontal and vertical sync are interleaved, but that's nothing an LM1881 can't sort out. Best thing for connecting an RGB CRT to a console you'll find, I've got an Atari SC1435 somewhere here retrofitted with one.
HDMI because we need HDCP and other DRM solutions to protect our data ;-)

>>51979881
I'm pretty sure if you've done something that would break pins on a DVI plug or any other cable, it would break a VGA as well.
If anything, it would be more likely to break a VGA cable because the extra pins on the DVI provide more strength - it's harder to bend 3 pins at once than 1 pin.
>>51978919
DisplayPort apparently, but you could have fooled me. I have nothing but problems with it
>>51981989
all the others also support 144hz...
only thing it has going is most gpus and monitors made between when VGA was standard and HDMI became standards has it
>>51978919
I'd say displayport, but i haven't used to much myself to be honest. DVI is the way for me. HDMI is good quality, but the connectors are fragile, and it's just annoying for sending and receiving audio.

Display port is the superior plug no doubt if you're just looking at capability. VGA is superior in the business word for cheapness and legacy. There is no other correct answer.
>>51979278
He's right, DP ports are shit
The electronics on either end of the cables are amazing but the ports and cables themselves are physically shit, I've broken a ton of connectors on DP, never broken an HDMI connector.
>>51989634
DVI can push 1080p/144 though
>>51978919
DVI-D
Anything else is pointless, unless you have 4k.
VGA has awful quality, cables go bad. HDMI is encrypted(HDCP) and has to be encoded\decoded, I've always had issues with this on a PC with it causing weird issues. DP I have no fucking clue. I still haven't even seen a monitor with a DP.
>>51978919
HDMI has the best connector. No stupid latching mechanism that's prone to malfunctioning. No incredibly irritating thumbscrews that lock into the device they're plugged into and need to be reinserted or broken.
The latest HDMI and DP are obviously superior to DVI and VGA for their bandwidth capabilities, DP being #1. No easily bent pins either. HDMI has the advantage of being much more prevalent than DP though, with DP really only showing up on high-end monitors.

I didn't even know DP existed until a few months ago, What even uses it atm, high end monitors and GPUs?
Pretty much everything can use DVI, or hdmi for audio and 4k. Why is DP needed?
>>51992663
Ultra-high bandwidth.
HDMI was only able to reach 40@60Hz relatively recently. DP can already do 8K@60Hz. Also, technologies like G-Sync and Freesync only work over DP.
DisplayPort is a royalty-free standard, while HDMI is not.

There is only a few models on the market today.
>>51999686
The future of video output is through USB C ports. It's mostly a question of which alternate mode for USB C they're going to implement, MHL or DisplayPort.
DisplayPort alt mode was finished first and is already in real USB C laptops (both of them), but MHL has the same gang of TV makers as HDMI behind it, so signs are still unclear.

USB is shit-tier for video output (CPU intensive, limited bandwidth, shitty cabling)
DP is the future of computer video interface. The problem is that display manufacturers are dragging their feet by offering DP only on high-end monitors.
That will quickly change once 4K becomes mainstream since HDMI 1.0-1.4/VGA/DVI cannot do 4K.
HDMI 2.0 will remain as an A/V interface.

He is talking about Thunderbolt over the physical USB C connector.
Not about various USB VGA adapters released in the past.

what was that used for?
I remember seeing it for color NeXT machines, but I can't recall if it was originally an SGI proprietary thing or whatever.
you all idiots need to read this to educate yourself on this topic. so many questions are answered in this article. stop saying shit until you know what you're talking about

What does HDMI do that DP doesn't already do but better besides connecting to a TV?

royalties, marketing hype, diamond plated cables, antivirus, HDMI to water hose

VGA has zero delay
this is unobjectable
anyone who has multiple monitors, set one to VGA, 1 to HDMI, 1 to DVI and boot your computer
see which monitor wakes up first
hell, if you still have a DVR from your tv company, plug in the component cables, then plug in the HDMI, you can have both at the same time, change channels with the HDMI feed, then switch to the component and change channels
these are facts
the SLIGHT increase in clarity/sharpness that digital feeds give you dont outwight all the cons
>any issue in a connect results in a completely black screen
>any type of degradation results in aliasing rather than bluryness
>>52002237
>What does HDMI do that DP doesn't already do
DP is a more technically robust system, but you have to remember that HDMI hit the market years earlier (2003 vs. 2008).
Even though it derives heavily and directly from DVI-D, HDMI added a substantial amount of stuff to it.

matter fact anyone who's had digital cable tv knows that any time theres an issue ,you get those annoying as fuck black horizontal tearing and freezing
meanwhile if those same issues of a wire thats exposed or has degradation would result in some noise on screen, the FPS is never affected

Everything just needs to change to displayport. HDMI a shit.
DVI does all of the above. High bandwidth, VGA retrocompatible... HDMI just has got audio as an extra, but for monitors, >DVI.
i even regret my Panasonic Viera doesn't just have screwable DVI connectors but only HDMIs, which, ISK feels like plugging an USB., nothing satisfactory in this.

yeah same, the first 1080p monitor i got, with 24 inch, is the one I still use today
Atleast 5 years now, and I have had to buy VGA to HDMI connectors, because i have changed laptops a few times
>>51978919
DVI is HDMI lite. That's like comparing USB C to 4.0
>>52006010
Isn't HDMI like DVI+DRM?
>>51978919
Definitely HDMI, although AFAIK DVI is just as good of quality, but doesn't transport audio as well. HDMI is my favorite because it transports audio and video at the same time in HD quality...probably why it's so popular

We used that banana cable and the computer/tv VHF splitter for my commodore 64.
Shit's still sitting in my basement IIRC
That last TV we had that used those was thrown out, and a Commodore monitor with RCA is hooked up to it now (connectors broken though)
>>51978919
Vga because it works with everything.
>>52000483
hdmi took DVI video, and added audio and other junk to it, making it sutiable for both uses, it's intended as a replacement for both
