Thunderbolt 3 leaves its predecessors and USB completely in the dust!
The latest version of Thunderbolt will use a USB Type-C connector and will offer an augmented data transfer. How good? It can drive two 4K Ultra HD screens at the same time! will let it move a 4K movie from one device to another in as little as 30 seconds or less and will also allow one single TB 3 cable to power the UHD video on two 4K displays at the same time, both running at 60Hz. This beats even HDMI 2.0 in terms of raw data carrying power for 4K. It will be able to support the same levels of power as normal USB connections while also being capable of much larger data transfer than that available to any USB cable thanks to Intel’s on-board electronic processing technology, built into the connections and cables.
The first of these awesome new cables are expected to come out by the end of 2015.
Something to add on your Christmas Wishlist!
