AMD Discusses 2016 Radeon Visual Technologies Roadmap (HDR, HDMI 2.0, DisplayPort 1.3)

[Killmeplsok]

They give 1 actual source from AMD themselves, and a bunch of people reporting on it/ forum posts...

I personally don't trust manufacturer (Especially AMD) sources being unbiased, any besides that? Maybe from Hynix?

Funnily enough on the Wikipedia it says development with AMD began in 2008, and on AMD's own slides it says 2007 with other sources saying 2006.

Whatever it is, your point of "AMD invested in SK Hynix few months before it was released" is definitely incorrect, because it was known for years that AMD is involved in the development and that AMD initiated the project, not SK Hynix.

None of the facts agrees with your point of "AMD did not developed HBM".

For 5120x2160 (4K 21.9) DP 1.3 only supports upto 90hz (not sure if that was with overhead taken out) so really DP 1.4 will be more exciting for those who like 21.9

 

Also Q4 2016 for 4K 120hz monitors, more like Q3/Q4 2017 (decent consumer versions)

They claim that 5K is 78% more than 4K thats just misleading as hell.

Which part is misleading exactly? It just says 78% more pixels than 4K which is accurate rounded to the nearest percent:

(5120*2880)/(3840*2160)-1=0.77...≈0.78

By the same logic it would be misleading to say that 4K has four times as much pixels as 1080p.

And despite the naming scheme, pixel count is a much more relevant metric than horizontal resolution, given that different aspect ratios coexist and pixel count scales quadratically with horizontal resolution if the aspect ratio is the same. And if we're talking about perfomance, the only thing that matters is how many pixels need to be pushed and not how they are arranged.

I just want 4K in a 23" form factor. Pixel density matters!

You can already have 4K in a 5.5" form factor  .

But only if you're using the two apps on the phone that support it

Lol that guy is funny. Amd always has had larger bandwidth than Nvidia. Amd always believed in needing more bandwidth and why the came up with the idea of Hbm and then partnered with a memory manufacture in the final design and manufacture of. Nvlink is another Nvidia attempt to try and take a open platform and close it to Nvidia just like game works.
