JEMC said: Wouldn't the use of optical fibre require a redesign on how the signal is processed in both GPUs and monitors? That, and the lack of a standard, will prevent that from happening anythime soon. |
Optical signals get converted back into electrical signals anyway, so on that front nothing would change. The only thing you would need is a connector, there are a wide variety of optical connectors out there already. But I don't see how that would be a problem. You also need new standards for further iterations of DP and HDMI.
If you demand respect or gratitude for your volunteer work, you're doing volunteering wrong.
