    Choosing the DisplayPort Cable for an Optimal 4K Experience on Xbox Series X


    Hello everyone,

    I've ordered this screen for the Xbox Series X:

    Amazon link

    However, the 4K display (3840x2160) is only provided by the DisplayPort. HDMI, on the other hand, provides a maximum of 2560x1440.

    Could you please show me the cable I need to buy on Amazon to connect my Xbox to the DisplayPort, please? I confess it's very confusing because it's essential not to get it wrong. Additionally, I've read that it's best to avoid adapters and focus on direct cables, especially one that supports 4K (3840x2160) at 60Hz!

    Thank you!

    Acer CB281HK - Xbox One X - HDMI to Displayport

    So is there no way to get 4k @ 60HZ through Displayport with max graphics
    Nope, without an official DP cable from MS (which does not exist), the Xbox cannot use the DisplayPort interface properly.

    In another year or two you might see HDMI 2.x to DP converters which will give the 60Hz/4K output, but as it stands right now they are very rare if the exist. Most are still HDMI 1.x to DP converters.

    Dying Light 2 only 30 fps on Series S... What a disgrace!

    I wouldn't consider anything that does not offer 4k @ 60fps (Or 4k ((Upscaled) @ 120fps) to even be next/current-gen. We've been living in a 30fps world for far too long. Upgrades we're promised and while many games aren't optimized perfectly (and, lets be honest "Series X/S Optimized" really just means "we upgraded it for the Series X capabilities and just assumed it would be fine on the Series S") better performance should be expected.

    Hi,

    A 4K TV with Xbox One X is the Optimal experience, it's not mandatory. The console can make use of 'super Sampling' which will give a better picture on a 1080p TV than a standard Xbox One or Xbox One S.

    So o can connect the hdmi 2.1 to a regular 4 k 2.0 hdmi port but I will not get the full experience or
    there will be like some xbox series xs that have different cables.
    No, The Xbox Series X has a HDMI 2.1 port therefore it will always ship with a HDMI 2.1 cable,

    "So o can connect the hdmi 2.1 to a regular 4 k 2.0 hdmi port but I will not get the full experience or there will be like some xbox series xs that have different cables."

    Yes, you can connect a HDMI 2.1 cable to a HDMI 2.0 port on your TV, you'll just be limited to 4K at 60hz, which is no different to what it like to play on the Xbox One X right now,

    [table][tr][td]Xbox Console HDMI Port[/td][td]HDMI Cable[/td][td]TV HDMI Port[/td][/tr][tr][td]Xbox One X, HDMI 2.0[/td][td]HDMI 2.0[/td][td]HDMI 2.0 = 4K at 60hz[/td][/tr][tr][td][td][td][/tr][tr][td]Xbox One X, HDMI 2.0[/td][td]HDMI 2.0[/td][td]HDMI 1.4 = 4K at 24hz to 30hz[/td][/tr][/table]

    As long as you have HDMI 2.0 port on your TV you'll be fine to use the Xbox Series X, but if your wanting to experience 4K at 120hz, you'll need a TV or Gaming monitor that has HDMI 2.1 ports.
