Looking for some input into the type USB4, type C 40GB but also works for onboard video. that has USB4 type C is active on my new motherboard. Gigabyte X870 Gaming WiFi6.
Disappearing PCI slot and display port. PCI ports? who used them anyway? I did for old rigs still running without onboard WiFi. My guess is, finally all new motherboards will have onboard USB4. Now the exiting of the display port in favor of HDMI and USB4/Thunderbolt? I read the DP is healthy, cable length issues were resolved with updates. Somebody is lying. It seems DP is going by the wayside. At least the version of DP as we know it. DP has been around for years but really doesn't have much to show for it. DP seems to have magically integrated into USB4. X870 chipset was released September, three months ago. I don't expect that many that have upgraded to show in this thread. Installing a GPU will certainly change things.
Thank you for any thoughts.
