Beuh, fuck the HDMI forum. I hope the spec is leaked and somebody just makes a kernel module which implements it.
Why even bother with HDMI??
ooh I love to pay royalties to and get permission to use the technology and the trademark. /s
Find me a TV that’s both designed for gaming and has a DisplayPort. Hell, find me any consumer TV with the port. Remember that the Steam Machine is intended for the living room big screen, not a 27" gaming monitor.

There’s always this option, could even include something like it in the box.
Um, I said TV, and all three of these are monitors. Niche monitors at that too, none of them are even in stock.
Furthermore, how many console gamers do you know who have a 55" Alienware monitor in their living room? I did say consumer TV as well, ya know.
What is your definition of TV in this context? All of these are 55"+, some even show pictures of it in a living room…
Look: It doesn’t matter what you think is and isn’t a TV, the fact of the matter is that the target market doesn’t have one of these end doesn’t care. They’ve got their $300 65" Hisense from Walmart, and guess what? Those TVs don’t have DisplayPort. That’s the point.
Now please stop being a pedantic jerk just for the sake of and go away.
Because love it or hate it, HDMI is the main interface that the vast majority of TVs use.
For this specific device you want to be able to hook it up to a TV, and unfortunately TVs tend to come with HDMI, not the superior displayport.
It will be replaced by GDMI which the Chinese invented in the future anyway.
Did they also invent time travel?
What kind of cancer is this website? Some fukcing “pur” subscription required.
It’s “pay or OK”, the “pur” subscription isn’t needed for viewing the content. They’ll probably gonna stick to that until the highest court has finally ruled that “pay or OK” is not OK at all.
