HDMI Vs. Displayport
I started using HDMI when i got a new monitor earlier this year. Recently I started looking to build my own PC however I wanted a modern graphics card which meant anywhere from $500 to $1500 to get excellent performance. Most of my choices had an HDMI, DVI and Displayport. I didn't know what Displayport was because aren't all the connections called display ports. I wanted to find out what Displayport was. As far as I have learned even though HDMI is High Definition Multi-media Interface Displayport has all the features but is less expensive, has longer cables and is faster. I also don't have a monitor supporting Displayport so I think I will get another one for a triple monitor setup.
What is The best graphics card on the market/what is my favorite gpu distributor
Graphics cards are tricky to choose. They cost a lot now and its hard to decide which one will be best for a computer I'm building. However I do have some experience with decisions. What would I want to be upgradable in the future, what might I use this for eventually, and which is the best gpu supplier Nvidia or AMD. This means that if I wanted to use this for video editing in the future then Nvidia would be my best choice. I am quite biased toward Nvidia even though I have never actually used one. Now if I had an unlimited budget then I would go with either the GTX 690 or the GTX Titan because they are both Nvidia and a lot closer than most reviews say. The 690 is a dual gpu graphics card however the Titan is a single gpu graphics card. The Titan however is using an updated gpu and has 6gb of GDDR5 ramm, now both of these cards are only $1000. If you are in need of a good graphics card but don't have the budget for the Titan or 690 then the GTX 670 is a very good choice only for that I would suggest the dual fan version. The 670 is only $370 but can still give good fps if you don't use it for rendering and major video editing.
Sorry it is now Sunday and I am updating this post because I did not actually read up on the latest news before posting this. I now have found some very intriguing info. New graphics cards are planned for both later in 2013 and early 2014. First and of lesser value than a few of these graphics cards is the GTX Titan Ultra. The GTX Titan Ultra would be barely anything different from the GTX Titan. The GTX Titan Ultra is just maxing out the number of cuda cores that the gk110 actually uses so it would only be helpful for video editing. However possibly the best graphics card coming in 2013 is the GTX 790. The GTX 790 much like the GTX 690 is a dual gpu desine of the gk110. This would make it possibly almost twice as good as the GTX Titan. What is also very amazing about this is that the GTX 790 would be priced at only $1000 being the same price as the Titan but much much better will most likely put Nvidia up to the top of gpu creators for the foreseeable future but if that alone is not enough Nvidia also announced that they will be creating a new line of gpus for the 800 series. This new series will most likely be released in early 2014 and very little other information has been posted about this.
