Both are high-definition digital interfaces, which can provide high-definition video and audio output at the same time, so people often compare the two.
DP1.4 has a bandwidth of 32.4Gbps and supports 4K 120Hz and 8K 30Hz. Before HDMI2.1 was launched, DP1.4 can be said to be better than HDMI2.0 in an all-round way.
