DP (DisplayPort)
There is one DisplayPort on the I/O back panel. DisplayPort, developed by the VESA
consortium, delivers digital display and fast refresh rate. It can connect to virtually any display
using a DisplayPort adaptor for devices such as VGA, DVI, or HDMI. This port provides Intel
HD Graphics digital output with resolution up to 4096x2304 at 60Hz Refresh Rate.
HDMI and HDMI 2.0 Port
Two HDMI (High Definition Multimedia Interface) ports are on the I/O back panel. This
connector is used to display both high definition video and digital sound through an HDMI-
capable display, using a single HDMI cable (not included). The motherboard also offers an
HDMI 2.0 port and an HDMI 1.4 port. HDMI 2.0 allows faster frame rates and is backward
compatible with previous HDMI versions. This port provides Intel HD Graphics digital output
with resolution up to 4096x2160 at 60Hz Refresh Rate with HDR.
