Difference between computer dp interface and hdmi

The difference between DP interface and HDMI lies in transmission bandwidth, supported resolution and audio format.

DP (Display Port) interface is a digital video and audio transmission standard with high bandwidth and flexibility. It supports high resolution and high refresh rate display, and can transmit images with 4K, 5K or even 8K resolution. The DP interface also supports multi-stream transmission and allows the connection of multiple monitors. In addition, DP interface also supports a variety of audio formats, including traditional two-channel and 7. 1 channel surround sound effects.

Hdmi (high definition multimedia interface) is a digital audio and video interface, which is widely used to connect multimedia devices such as televisions and monitors. The HDMI interface also supports high-resolution display and can transmit images with 4K resolution. However, compared with DP interface, HDMI has a lower transmission bandwidth, which may be limited in high resolution and high refresh rate. In addition, HDMI interfaces usually only support dual-channel or 5. 1 channel audio formats.
