Can the valve index use a mini displayport?
The valve index needs a displayport and that is the only port it can use. Can it use the mini displayport?

With a adapter using the mini display port should be no problem.

Here is a thread about Index users talking about which adapter works best and so on.
But like i wrote, should be no problem. The signal is the exact same for display and mini display ports, there is no technical difference except the size.

Sorry dude, I didn't actually get the Valve Index as I was just considering buying it. I decided to get myself an Oculus Rift S instead due to the fact it's way cheaper. If it's any help to you the Rift S works fine with a mini displayport adaptor so I don't see why the Index shouldn't work.
