Still displayport 1.4

Intel has already moved to 2.0, and AMD is rumored to be supporting displayport 2.0

Would have liked to see this for 40 series, but I guess I will wait to build my first PC

Intel has moved to DisplayPort 2.0, but their current product specifications, e.g. for NUC12SNK, say: "DisplayPort 2.0 (1.4 certified)".

But I assume that they will get a certification in the future.

For Thunderbolt, where it was Intel who did the certifications, many companies have sold motherboards or computers for months or years with non-certified Thunderbolt ports which worked OK, while waiting for the certification.

Seems like we will need this sooner rather than later too with 500hz screens on the horizon.

Strange since the new frame interpolation in DLSS 3 might bring us much closer to smooth motion on sample-and-hold displays.
