Discuss idea: Add Display Port across the entire line
Idea submitted by farego on July 30, 2008
Add Display Port support across the entire line of FireGL cards- not just the 7700. Display Port is a high performance, expandable (and physically small) solution. Presumable this would reduce costs for the card, and reduce monitor vendor costs as well. Maybe drop dual-link DVI and include converters from Display Port for legacy monitors?

Looks like this is the way ATI is going to do just that.They announced a couple of new cards at Siggraph, 3700 and 5700. The first is a consumer priced workstation card, good for those of us (me included) with low incomes and high ambitions. The other one, (the 5700) actualy has 2 displayports. When i asked someone in the booth, they said they intend to support the standard across the product line as new products are added.
