Plus, we have all the old devices that still work just fine using the old ports. I've been using some LCD monitors for five or six years that are VGA-only, and they are still going strong, with no need or reason to replace them.
DisplayPort vs HDMI is one of the real bafflers. Graphics cards always seem to have one HDMI out, and two or three DPs, yet I have never encountered a monitor that have DP-in ports, just VGA or HDMI.
- marcins 10y agoI recently got a Dell P2715q and it has DP and HDMI only. As time goes on you're less likely to see DVI connectors on monitors.
- hocuspocus 10y agoWow VGA... even 13-14 years ago my monitors were on DVI. As for DP, you've never seen a 27 or 30" monitor? All high resolution (QHD, UHD, 4K, 5K) or high refresh (120/144 Hz) or G-sync/FreeSync monitors use DP as their main input source.
- krylon 10y agoOkay, for higher resolutions that may be a thing. I have only seen one 27" display, and it was "only" 1920x1080, with one VGA, one DVI and one HDMI input. :-/ (Also, I have seen many PCs with builtin graphics that have no DVI output, only VGA and HDMI (and sometimes DisplayPort).)
