Clarkdale IGP can do DisplayPort
As well as HDMI and DVI
Clarkdale, Intel’s first 32nm CPU with 45nm IGP on the same chip will be capable of supporting three digital display ports. All major ones are included, HDMI, DVI and Display Port but we are quite surprised to see the lack of VGA.
VGA is still popular at least with cheap monitors that only feature VGA, but DVI and other two are definitely gaining popularity, all except DisplayPort that is still reserved for the most expensive displays.
Clarkdale graphics also support dual independent display which is definitely good news for any multi-monitor loves and its been rumoured for a while that its IGP is nothing more than G45 core stuck on a small chip and clocked to meet the Clarkdale thermal numbers.
Clarkdale, as well as its mobile brother Arrandale, should be ready for Q1 2010 global launch.
