DP2.0 interface with better performance than 

HDMI 2.1 is finally here

Compared with HDMI 2.1, the DisplayPort 2.0 interface, which was officially announced as early as 2019, seems a bit slow, and there is still no mainstream product choosing to use it .

On the afternoon of May 23rd, 2022, the 600 series chipset motherboard, which debuted with the AMD Zen 4 Ryzen 7000 desktop processor, fully supports DP 2.0, and manufacturers can configure up to 4 HDMI 2.1 or DP 2.0.

The reason why the 600 series motherboard is so generous in terms of I/O this time is that in addition to the special design of the motherboard's dual south bridge chips, there is also the Zen 4 native integrated GPU unit (RDNA2).

The bandwidth of DP 2.0 is as high as 80Gbps. Even if the 97% efficiency of the loss is counted, it is still 77.4Gbps, far exceeding the full 48Gbps of HDMI 2.1. However, DP2.0 requires special cables, which are UHBR 10, UHBR 13.5, and UHBR 20 from low to high.

In fact, in addition to Zen 4, the Ryzen 6000 notebook APU of Zen3+ has been the first batch to obtain DP 2.0 certification.Did not know when the manufacturers release it.

In addition, the first batch of AM5 interface motherboards include X670E (Extreme), X670 and X650, of which X670E adopts full PCIe 5.0, with up to 24 storage and graphics cards (one graphics card + two M.2), 14 USB 3.2 20G ports, Wi-Fi 6E+Bluetooth 5.2, etc.
