    Question Nvidia 3k series without displayport 2.0?

    With the upcoming release of the new line of Nvidia cards, I was wondering (and maybe you all know), why did they choose to include HDMI 2.1 ports, but not do DisplayPort 2.0? Is the timing just a little too early to get it on them? I read that DP2.0 items should start coming to the...

    Any good reason for that? the 980ti is a super good deal right now. Also, (in my opinion)AMD sucks..def will never be buying that garbage.

    Thanks, Since the power supply is free it means nothing to me. I guess what i'll do is i'll keep the case (again, not optional i'm sold on it) and buy your recommended power supply on top of it. The other power supply can make a nice paperweight or something! :) Appreciate all the help...
