Displayport is much much more versatile and futureproof. And supports daisy chaining monitors and higher resolution than HDMI. Also trivially adapts to DVI, HDMI, etc. I would not consider buying anything without at least one displayport. Especially since the HDMI on the AM4 boards is 1.4 not 2.0, and hence limited to 4k @ 30Hz, not 60Hz. At least intel based boards tend to be HDMI 2.0 these days.
Apparently depending on the CPU model and how well the board is made, it MIGHT be HDMI 2.0 compatible. The 2400G is apparently one of the chips that should support HDMI 2.0 if the board is done properly. -- Len Sorensen
