This thread is inspired by the one on USB confusion, it made me delve a little deeper into the following issues.

My oldish 32" monitor has 1440p resolution (2560 x 1440) What is the minimum HDMI versions/specs that will drive the monitor? (single monitor scenario only)

I read the info in the link below as follows:

At a refresh rate of 30 Hz I need at least HDMI 1.2-1.2a
At a refresh rate of 60 Hz I need at least HDMI 1.3-1.4b
(I don't need higher refresh rates, I don't play games)


Further, what is the minimum DiplayPort versions/specs that will drive the monitor? (single monitor scenario only)

I read the info in the link below and couldn't figure it out :eek1:


Further yet, what is the minimum on-chip Intel Graphics Technology that will drive the monitor? (single monitor scenario only)

I read the info in the link below and couldn't figure it out :eek1:


Finally, the data ranges in the above linked info make it appear that desktop computer OEMs have considerable leeway, what minimum product specs will drive the monitor? (single monitor scenario only)
