Yesss please
Sorry to be late to this, I don't really frequent this subforum...couldn't you just upgrade the video card to get HDMI 2.1/DP 1.4? A 2019 mobo should easily support the 30xx and 40xx nVidia graphics card (though if you go too high powered you may need to upgrade your power supply too).Anyone shopping for any of the displays mentioned in this thread should double check that their computer has at least HDMI v2.0 and/or Display Port v1.4. My current PC, which I custom built with an ASUS motherboard that was released in 2019, has HDMI v1.4b and DP v1.2 onboard. I am rather upset with ASUS over this for a few reasons. The tech specs for this mobo on the ASUS website makes no mention of what actual version the video ports are, just that they support a resolution of 3840x2160. This mobo was marketed for gaming, and was released years after HDMI v2.0 was standard on nearly all UHD displays and devices, so the company’s excuse that “most users would use an add-on graphics card anyway” is pretty lame.
I found all of this out just recently when I connected my PC to my LG C1 OLED to begin an editing project that will require intricate color correction, and my current PC display was not good enough. I was unable to get the Intel UHD Graphics to recognize the C1 as an HDR capable display, and a call to ASUS tech support provided the bad news. I just cannot believe a gaming mobo built in 2019 and boasted 4K resolution had video ports that were outdated years prior to its release.
Well, that was the point that ASUS tech support made, but a new 4Gb lower end video card costs as much as what I paid for the mobo. There is no real excuse for anything manufactured in the last five years with an HDMI port that is supposed to support UHD resolution to be anything less than v2.0a. And especially if the mobo is marketed as a gaming mobo.Sorry to be late to this, I don't really frequent this subforum...couldn't you just upgrade the video card to get HDMI 2.1/DP 1.4?
