The world goes HD, which means that DisplayPort and HDMI are becoming the default choice for manufacturers.

With the programmed death of the VGA 2015 and the willingness of manufacturers to offer this port as standard, iSuppli estimates that the number of compatible products delivered should reach 500 million by 2014. This phenomenon is visible on all graphics products. Thus, the inclusion of a DisplayPort port on graphics cards has doubled this year.
