Thread: Current trends

With um gaining little support outside Asia, and the once Um-friendly might of Intel now also behind Displayport, the future in India looks set to be filled with HDMI and Displayport devices. But although analogue connections will become less common, you won't need to think about replacing your DVI-based kit for a while yet, especially if you buy equipment that supports HDCP.

Whichever new interface dominates, your current kit will remain useful for many years, and both um and Displayport bring the promise of less costly replacements when you do finally decide to upgrade.
