What do you guys think?
1080Ti I'm in the process of stepping up to has no DVI, and the 4K GSync monitor I used to use has no DVI either. The Samsung 34" monitor I use now has no DVI. Everything is going to displayport now.

Lol. Sorry, no time to proof read.
That made no sense. The gsync part. I meant freesync. Whoops. My bad.
Its always been that the higher end cards have the latest and best video output ports. But the lower end would support the older technology. Like the analog vga port, the lower and mid range cards suppored that slot for ever. They had vga to dvi adapters in the box while the top end cards had no vga slots.
The fact that the top end scrapped dvi, thats to je expected. I dont think people want to use a card like that with a monitor decades old. But low end, they almost all use old monitors.
So, is amd trying to sway people to buy new monitors...could it be in hopes they will adopt to freesync. But I am not sure what freesync monitors are out there.
