Samsung Develops First LCD Panel Using DisplayPort

Posted by CowboyNeal on from the new-and-improved dept.

SK writes "Samsung has developed the world's first LCD panel using the next-generation video interface — DisplayPort. Sanctioned by VESA (the Video Electronics Standards Association), DisplayPort will serve as a replacement for DVI, LVDS and eventually VGA. By using a transmission speed more than double that of today's interfaces, Samsung's new LCD only requires a single DisplayPort interface, instead of the two DVI (Digital Visual Interface) ports now used. The speed enables 2560x1600 resolution without any color smear."

    I think we should judge for ourselves. Can't someone post a screenshot?

    Those screenshots really show off the benefits of this new technology. You better believe it. Here's the same content via DVI for comparison.
