Til. Shame, but DP is much better anyway. That explains why I can rarely get more than 1080p out of those anyway, only have a few good ones that go to qwxga.

Hdmi is such a disaster of a standard, I wish they'd just make new versions a different connector running DP, everyone would be happy, though the 5 people using the ethernet support would be SOL.

Never seen anyone use it before, but it's there.
