Reddit reviews Club3D CAC-1070 Displayport 1.2 to HDMI 2.0 UHD Active Adapter Support 4096X2160 at 60Hz VESA Certified

Dealt with this issue myself.

I managed to get it to work in the end by doing the following;

1. Use a DP > HDMI 2.0 Adapter
   
2. Use the app ScreenResX to manually set your resolution to 4K 60hz
   
   Now doing it this way means you can't use the OS to set the scaling so what you need to do is set your resolution in screenresX to 2560 x 1440 (It will still be at 3840 x 2160) but scaled to the lower res so its easier to see.
   
   It's definitely not a hardware issue, its just Apple putting limitations on 60hz output. For some reason MacOS doesn't like 4K 60hz output over HDMI. Hopefully once their E-GPU platform comes out this will be an issue of the past.
   
   This is the adapter I used and works 100% of the time for me! Club3D Displayport 1.2 to HDMI 2.0 UHD (CAC-1070)
   

no DP is the best, why?

• DP 1.3 HBR3 mode has 80% more bandwidth than HDMI 2.0, DVI is severity outclassed here
  
• DP 1.4 supports HDR, much better deep blacks, way better color, this is what blur-ray 4k has support for and newer tvs too, hdmi 2.0b also supports this
  
• DP supports Daisy Chaining of displays or you can use a MST Hub 1 Output = 3 Displays
  
• DP adapters so you can do DP > HDMI 2.0, DP > DVI, DP > VGA
  
  thats why there are a boatload of adapters, one of the XFX ref backplate cards include a DP>DVI adapter i think
  
  if everyone wanted DVI, we would have been stuck at 1600p60 for a 100 years..
  
  those adapters i told you about?, dont cost an arm or a leg, its like 18 bucks for a active one dp to dvi or 28 for hdmi 2.0

Yes, most adapters only support HDMI 1.4

There is an active adapter from Club3D which supports HDMI 2.0. I use it for my Fury X and can enjoy 4K60 on my TV. Costs around 35€.

My 5-year-old 27" Samsung 1080p TN monitor broke last week, so I went down to Costco and picked up this exact model for $369. I love it. I'll be trying to get a price match on this model, but i had a feeling it'd go on sale for Black Friday since it's been on sale a couple times this month. It's one of the better 40" 4k TVs to use as a monitor, according to: http://www.rtings.com/tv/reviews/samsung/ku6300.

Input lag and reponse time are pretty low for a TV, but nothing close to a good monitor, but I don't notice any negatives compared to my old monitor. The viewing angles are decent, but not fantastic. My GTX 780 doesn't have HDMI 2.0, so I bought this converter: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B017BQ8I54. If it introduces any additional lag, I didn't notice.

I don't play twitch FPS games, so take that into consideration. I do play a lot of Skyrim and its great, though I can't power it at 4k, so it's only 1080p for gaming until I upgrade. I use it primarily for web browsing and programming and it does a good job at those tasks.

If it hadn't worked out for me, I probably would've returned it for something else, but I like it a lot. In my opinion, for $269, it's a steal.

You would need an active adapter.

I know you said not TVs but this is what I have and it is awesome 50” Samsung MU6300. Does the 4K at 60hz.

I had to buy this display port to hdmi: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B017BQ8I54
And this HDMI cable: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01CRA11IU

I needed both of these for the hackintosh to display in 4K . Do not try to buy other cables unless you are sure they support 4K.

Also you may need to tweak the settings. See this guide:
https://medium.com/@keredson/using-the-samsung-mu6300-40-4k-tv-as-a-computer-monitor-8582390bb824

Have you looked into your TV settings and check if you have a SST and MST setting? May at least help with the chopping.

But unfortunately, it does appear all R7's have 4k support BUT not 4k@60hz with that high of a resolution. For one, you need a 2.0 HDMI to run 4k@60, but your card does not support 2.0 HDMI in this way.

I would upgrade GPU that is designed to run 4k@60 3840 × 2160 all on its own.

or try as another said:
https://www.amazon.com/Club3D-Displayport-1-2-HDMI-CAC-1070/dp/B017BQ8I54

Yes, you can convert DP1.2 to HDMI 2.0 using an adapter like this one.

The problem is converting HDMI 2.0 to DP1.2. No adapters exist that do that. We asked Club3D about it, and they dont see a demand for that type of adapter so they have no made one.

Anything with DisplayPort plus an external DisplayPort to HDMI 2.0 converter, https://www.amazon.com/Club3D-Displayport-1-2-HDMI-CAC-1070/dp/B017BQ8I54/ref=sr_1_3?ie=UTF8&qid=1485475001&sr=8-3&keywords=displayport+1.2+hdmi+2.0, there are no current CPUs with integrated graphics that can drive HDMI 2.0 directly, so you need a converter either on board or separately, and on board is pretty rare.

Reading up on the R9 290 it looks like it can't actually output 4k over HDMI, only the Displayport. Best way to make it work would be a an Displayport 1.2 to HDMI 2.0 adapter like this one on Amazon.

https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B017BQ8I54/ref=s9_acsd_hps_bw_c_x_1_r

If you don't get that exact one, make sure to get one that is an "Active Adapter"

I am not certain about this adaptor. It might, but most adaptors that claim to support 4K are actually just HDMI 1.4.

I can guarantee that this adaptor will work though. Several people with Furys used this in particular adaptor to get HDMI 2.0:

https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B017BQ8I54/ref=mp_s_a_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1483543941&sr=8-1&pi=AC_SX236_SY340_QL65&keywords=club+3d+display+port+to+hdmi+2.0&dpPl=1&dpID=41fnH-DjnGL&ref=plSrch

There is also a mini display port version of this if you need it.

Most importantly, this adaptor supports 4:4:4 chroma. Most adaptors only do 4:2:0. 4:2:0 is alright for video, but it looks like ass for computer interfaces.

https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B017BQ8I54/ref=mp_s_a_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1473146320&sr=8-1&pi=SY200_QL40&keywords=club3d+displayport+1.2+to+hdmi+2.0&dpPl=1&dpID=41fnH-DjnGL&ref=plSrch

Club3d Displayport 1.2 to HDMI 2.0. Works great!

https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B017BQ8I54/ref=s9_acsd_hps_bw_c_x_1

For those wanting a regular Displayport connection. These adapters will allow your to keep 4:4:4 @60hz.

Used this to connect my 4K UHD TV and my 1440p 144hz. Didn't have much issues.
https://www.amazon.com/dp/B017BQ8I54/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_i_fuB0Db6M44MMC

Haven't used these in a while since now I only just use my Tv.

I use this one

Mit so einem Adapter bekommst du aber meist nur 4k@30Hz zusammen. Zurzeit kenn ich nur den Adapter von Club 3D, der auch wirklich 4k@60Hz liefert, da er ein displayport zu hmdi 2.0 adapter ist.

As long as you get a Mini Displayport Adapter that terminates to HDMI 2.0 you'll be fine.

Example: https://www.amazon.com/Club3D-Displayport-1-2-HDMI-CAC-1070/dp/B017BQ8I54

Hier hol dir diesen Adapter für 35€, mit dem müsste es dann gehen.

Vielleicht hat deine Grafikkarte aber auch nur mini Displayport, dann musst du nach nem anderen Adapter suchen.

Und anscheinend muss man dann noch manuell von 30 auf 60 Hz umstellen.

Okay, got it. DisplayPort 1.2 and HDMi 2.0 both support 3440x1440 at 100 Hz, so you have some options.

Something like this looks like it would work pretty well. It looks like only the mini Displayport version is DP 1.2 though.

Otherwise you could go for an HDMi 2.0 switch like this and then pair it with some adapters like this.

No, they "repeat" HDCP so it should work fine. At least the good ones do.
(Ignore that price gouge because they're seemingly out of stock).

https://www.amazon.com/Club3D-Displayport-1-2-HDMI-CAC-1070/dp/B017BQ8I54/ref=sr_1_1?s=pc&ie=UTF8&qid=1467765206&sr=1-1&keywords=club3d+displayport+1.2+to+hdmi+2.0+uhd

Using HDMI 5 I don't get any video until windows boot, have to switch to 4 or elsewhere to access my bios. Try putting the image settings on computer or gaming also.

The TV can but the GPU can't, you'll need the adapter(https://www.amazon.com/Club3D-Displayport-1-2-HDMI-CAC-1070/dp/B017BQ8I54/ref=sr_1_9?ie=UTF8&qid=1469233801&sr=8-9&keywords=4k+60hz+hdmi+dp) or a AMD 400 series or 900 or higher series for Nvdia.

Should still work though mine did, what resolution is windows set at?

Does it have a displayport output? If so, one of these will get you 60fps at 4k. I have mine set up in crossfire and it's great for most older games. New games I still play at a lower resolution.

Club3D Displayport 1.2 to HDMI 2.0 UHD (CAC-1070) https://www.amazon.com/dp/B017BQ8I54/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_sAgzxbAF8ZJGF

If you have a mini displayport output, get this instead.

Club3D Mini Displayport 1.2 to HDMI 2.0 UHD (CAC-1170) https://www.amazon.com/dp/B017BQCUGW/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_vDgzxb3FFKG8K

You should be able to display 4k@60hz over DP 1.2 using the Club3D adapter assuming your TV supports it:
https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B017BQ8I54/

It works fine with my 390 and Hisense H8C. Lighter/older games get 60fps no problem at 4k. Just make sure you have a good HDMI cable, I had a cheap one laying around and it kept cutting out.

> KU6290

You should be fine. The KU6290 is identical to the KU6300 except for a smart remote. It can perform 4K @ 60hz @ 4:4:4 chroma. 30ms isn't horrible, especially for non-twitch stuff, so long as you set it up properly. Out of the box, it probably defaults to 100ms input lag because of all the other post-input settings.

Check out this review:
http://www.rtings.com/tv/reviews/samsung/ku6300

Most specifically, the "Inputs" section, and the guides to get the most out of your TV in the "Input Lag" and "Supported Resolutions" subsections.

Most importantly though: To get the 4K@60Hz@4:4:4, check if you have HDMI 2.0 on your video card. If so, just connect an HDMI 2.0 cord from Card to "HDMI 1" input slot. If you lack HDMI 2.0, see if you have DisplayPort 1.2 (more likely).

Then you can get this adapter or similar:
amazon(DOT)com/Club3D-Displayport-1-2-HDMI-CAC-1070/dp/B017BQ8I54

(no referral links :\ , though I may be mistaking what a referral link is. I'm just assuming its any clickable URL that makes you jump to a page to buy stuff.)

...and connect your displayport to "HDMI 1". Can't use the on-TV speakers that way though.

I am a sucker for screen real estate and have been using a 40" 4k TV (Samsung UN40KU6300) mostly for programming work for about three years now. -- I love it, but there are some trade-offs to consider:

• Resolution/PPI
  A 40" 4k TV has about 110ppi, about the same as a 20" HD (1920x1080) monitor. I would probably not go any bigger than 40" (or maybe 43") and I would not use any non-4k TVs. -- Look at this page if you want to play around with various display sizes and see the corresponding PPI.
  
• Power on/Power off (might be specific to the TV model I use):
  
  • Unlike a monitor, when waking the computer from sleep or powering it on, the TV does not wake up by itself. I have to turn it on via the TV's remote. Inversely, when the PC is suspended/turned off, the TV will display "No Signal" for about 10 minutes and then turn off. (Or you can again turn it off manually).
    
  • Also, after powering on the TV it takes several button pushes on the TV remote for my model to get it to switch to chroma 4:4:4 subsampling again.
    
• Connectivity:
  Your TV will not have a Display Port, but only HDMI. You want HDMI 2.0 for 4k @ 60Hz and chroma 4:4:4 subsampling. I think nowadays most graphics cards have a HDMI 2.0 capable HDMI port. In the past I have used this Display Port 1.2 to HDMI 2.0 adapter with success. Also most TVs will only have one HDMI port that is capable of handling 4k @ 60Hz with chroma 4:4:4 subsampling. (Read your TV's manual). This might be an issue for you if you want to hook up multiple computers to the same display.
  
• Ergonomics
  
  • The way I use my TV when working is basically like a monitor. I am NOT sitting further back from it (which IMHO would defeat the purpose of having that much screen real estate). It does fill a large part of my field of vision and looking from one side to the other requires you to move your head. The way I typically work is that my editor/command line occupies about 2/3rds of my screen's width, and a browser with email and some chatting software takes up the other 1/3rd, which IMHO mitigates this.
    
  • The width of the 40" TV and its PPI is almost exactly the same as this 38" Dell Ultra Wide monitor. My TV is just a little taller (and only cost half as much in 2016 as that monitor does in 2019).
    
  • You probably need to improvise some kind of stand for the TV. For me, the stand that the TV came with caused it to sit way too low on my desk. And most monitor stands won't accommodate the size/weight of the TV. -- I ended up building something myself out of plywood, a 2x4 and some clamps/screws, to clamp the whole thing to my desk so that it doesn't slide off.
    
  • Since you are sitting very close to the screen, the angle at which you look at, say, the center portion is quite different from the corners of the monitor. For the TV that I am using this means that I am noticing a slight shift in color and brightness when looking at the center of the screen vs. the corners. This might be specific to my TV model and it doesn't bother me. IMHO it is a complete non-issue for editing source code or word processing, but I would not want to do any photoshopping where color accuracy is required on this setup.
    
    In general, I would recommend checking out this article on rtings.com, rating TVs for monitor usage.
    
    <tl;dr>
    
    A 40" 4k TV will give you about the same PPI as a 20" HD monitor, so no issues there. Make sure you are fine with HDMI 2.0 instead of Display Port inputs and use a TV that is capable of chroma 4:4:4 subsampling, particularly when editing text.
    
    However, there are certain trade-offs you have to be aware of when using a TV as a monitor. It works well for things like programming or text editing, but not so much in cases where color accuracy across the screen is required. Also in the days of 38" ultra wide monitors a 40" TV as monitor does not sound that crazy anymore.
    
    </tl;dr>

Try this:

https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B017BQ8I54/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o03_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

It will convert any hdmi 1.2 port to a 2.0 port allowing for native 4k resolution at 60fps.

I use for my own setup.

Late reply, but keep in mind that you can convert DisplayPort 1.2 to HDMI 2.0 (HDCP 2.2) with a relatively cheap adapter.

The only adapter that works correctly as far as I've seen is Club3D's
https://www.amazon.com/dp/B017BQ8I54/ref=olp_product_details?_encoding=UTF8&me=
Have one on my 260x in my HTPC, works great.

I could use this work around too. I'll let you know if I find anything.

Edit* maybe something like this

Or this would be even better because an adapter could cause lag.

Cable Matters DisplayPort 1.2 to HDTV Cable Supporting 4K 6 Feet https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01672IR6I/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_5Iqkyb1TG6306

You need Active adapter.
https://www.amazon.com/Club3D-Displayport-1-2-HDMI-CAC-1070/dp/B017BQ8I54

Edit: My mistake, right now there are no HDMI 2.0 to Display Port adapters available for sale.
Expect HDMI 1.4 to DP adapter by the end of the year from Club3D.

I have yet to run into a TV that has problems. We have 4K TVs in every office and conference room at work, probably 25 different models from Sony, Sharp, Vizio, and Insignia. For laptops that have a HDMI 2.0 port, people plug in with that. For those that don’t, they use a DP to HDMI adapter from Club3D or the computers we put in the conference rooms (which use the same adapter).

This is the adapter we use: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B017BQ8I54/

Google took me here: https://www.amazon.com/Club3D-Displayport-1-2-HDMI-CAC-1070/dp/B017BQ8I54

Edit: Nevermind, someone noted it's not bi-directional so it only takes DP output and converts to HDMI input. I'll take another look.

according to google that GPU has a displayport port so if you can spend 30$ you dont need a new graphics card

Since there are no macs with HDMI 2.0 - Apple hasn't really cared to write support for it into the OS.

-

The pixel clock patch (kept by Floris497) used to work for my GTX 980ti on El Capitan, 4k @ 6hz. Since updating to Sierra, it seems the Nvidia patch has broken. First there were reports of it in CoreDisplay, then it seems to have moved all over the place - some users report success, but I've never seen it work with an NVIDIA Maxwell+ GPU (with Web Drivers) and a 4k screen. I've tried with 10.12.0 -> 10.12.4 with both a GTX 980ti and GTX 1080ti connected to an LG 65EF9500. What I ended up doing was just getting the Club3D CAC-1070 DP -> HDMI active adapter - as that allows for 4k @ 60Hz to the monitor/tv, and the OS sees it as Display Port (which macOS fully recognizes).

Does your monitor support full 4K 60hz 4:4:4? If yes, does your EVGA sport a mini DP or DP port? At least 1.2?

For my previous laptop, I had to use a 1.2 display port to HDMI 2.0 active dongle.

I recommend this Club3D one, as it has worked for me for both 4k 60hz RGB full and YCbCr444.

Alright thanks bud. So we're clear this is the bad boy, right:
Club3D Displayport 1.2 to HDMI 2.0 UHD (CAC-1070) https://www.amazon.com/dp/B017BQ8I54/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_OveuybPV16BSH

Is this what you're looking for, because if not I don't think what you want exists

OK, The cable I linked is DP1.2a. I have a 1.2a DisplayPort on my video card which runs a 2,560x1,440 monitor at 144Hz. It's a 21.6Gbps port that will run a 3,840x2,160 monitor at atleast 24Hz.

This says that DisplayPort 1.2 should be able to provide a 3,840x2,160 signal at 60Hz.

You might invest in the second cable instead of the first since I don't know if there are physical changes in HDMI 2.0 cable spec.

You want a DP-\>HDMI adapter that supports 4k@60hz. That's what I'm using on my Odyssey.

This is the one I use: https://smile.amazon.com/gp/product/B017BQ8I54

Microsoft lists one on their troubleshooting web page - I think the brand name is Pluggable.Club3d and Cable Matters.

Here is the page link: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/mixed-reality/enthusiast-guide/recommended-adapters-for-windows-mixed-reality-capable-pcs

this adapter would allow you to run full DP capability through to hdmi 2.0 (most adapters would limit you) but you are still limited by DP 1.1. I think that you need DP 1.2 to run 4k@60 and DP 1.1 maxes out at 4k@30.

Sorry. I think you are limited either way.

You need an active DisplayPort to HDMI adapter that explicitly supports 4K and HDMI 2.0. Club3D makes one and so does Plugable.

You'll need an HDMI 2.0 output or a displayport output with an hdmi2.0 adapter, like the Club3D one.

Other than that, no, should be perfect for that

https://www.amazon.com/Club3D-Displayport-1-2-HDMI-CAC-1070/dp/B017BQ8I54 could try something like this

Well, Evga made 6 models of RTX 2070 and some look exactly the same, besides of different ports.
You could go with HDMI 2.0 to Displayport adapter, if your monitor gives you a HDMI 2.0 signal: https://www.amazon.com/Club3D-Displayport-1-2-HDMI-CAC-1070/dp/B017BQ8I54

If your Radeon card has a displayport port you could try one of these https://www.amazon.com/Club3D-Displayport-1-2-HDMI-CAC-1070/dp/B017BQ8I54

If your TV has a displayport (or some variation of it, like a mini displayport) i'd just get a cable for that. Despite the name it should carry audio

If you buy a HDMI 2.0 adapter it might work, https://www.amazon.com/Club3D-Displayport-1-2-HDMI-CAC-1070/dp/B017BQ8I54

(dont quote me on this tho)

Here is a DP 1.2 -> HDMI 2.0 for $30

I have one and it works great. Should be $30 in the US.

New update been testing out for a while with new drivers plus the club 3d adapter, my TV will still randomly drop signal for a second every once in a blue moon but it doesn't hard drop like before where it would rearrange the desktop as if a new device was plugged in. Figured I'd should let people know in case they go looking for answers.
--------------------------------------------------


So I finally bit the bullet and picked up one of these Club 3D DisplayPort to HDMI 2.0 adapters

DP TO HDMI CLUB 3D Amazon

because my 4k TV flickering was driving me insane. Been testing for about a day on 1.7.6.2 and a few hours on 1.7.7.1 versions and so far no flickering or disconnects. Things to note is my display looks a touch darker on its natural settings, it's running at 60HZ vs 59HZ naturally so on first boot that's what I got thankfully. No more tooling around trying to force 60HZ to match my other 2 monitors.

Other thing to note, it comes up as RGB 4:4:4 in Radeon Additional settings now, it used to come up as 4:2:2, I've done quick tests and it looks to actually show 4:4:4 Chroma.

From my understanding it has to do with how the display talks to the GPU, either HDCP disconnects for some random reason which is one of the reasons I think the adapter works.

OR

It's an EDID thing, where the monitor is saying one thing and the Windows/GPU is saying another. Apparently something like this also works.

EDID Override adapter (HAVEN'T TESTED THIS MYSELF) Video trying to prove their theory

Honestly would have loved to just had an update that fixed this but it got to the point where I just said I'm done with it, going to fix it myself. HDMI on any version of Windows has always been pretty broken. Scaling is always off, refresh rate is random, chroma subsampling is always off so the picture looks just janky. Might as well use DisplayPort instead.

Curious to see if anyone has experienced the issue with DP or is it just HDMI, or has anyone seen any issues after using an adapter between display and GPU?

Cheers guys.

Edit should have mentioned I'm using an RX 480

What CPU? Most of Intel's iGPUs are limited to 4k @ 30Hz over HDMI (lame, I know). You'll more than likely have to get a display port -> HDMI adapter. Make sure it's one that supports 4k @ 60Hz; there's only a couple out there right now.

Here's a Display Port -> HDMI adapter on Amazon that has decent reviews and supports 4k @ 60Hz

:EDIT: Example: I7-7700T only supports 4k @ 60Hz over Display Port; it's limited to 24Hz through HDMI

Max Resolution (HDMI 1.4)‡
4096x2304@24Hz

Max Resolution (DP)‡
4096x2304@60Hz

Max Resolution (eDP - Integrated Flat Panel)‡
4096x2304@60Hz

Right, sorry hdmi 2.0... how about an adapter like this. Will that work?

the solution is displayport,Mobo in build above has it.

If your TV does not have a displayport you can use an active dp to hdmi 2.0a adapter like this one https://www.amazon.com/DisplayPort-HDMI-2-0a-Active-Adapter/dp/B01B6ZOMIS or this one https://www.amazon.com/Club3D-Displayport-1-2-HDMI-CAC-1070/dp/B017BQ8I54/ref=pd_sim_147_1?ie=UTF8&pd_rd_i=B017BQ8I54&pd_rd_r=SZSDX49Q4SBKBF0QJYZ5&pd_rd_w=uMnWY&pd_rd_wg=9rDBd&psc=1&refRID=SZSDX49Q4SBKBF0QJYZ5 and then an hdmi 2.0 cable

Not sure if this is what you wanted, but this adapter is the only one on the market so far that does 4K at 60hz.

Every active adapter will introduce a little input lag, but not enough to be noticeable in my experience. Ultra wide should work, but worse case you can plug the monitor into your hdmi port and use the adapter and plug that into your tv.

I did on an Asus ROG G751JY Laptop. Has a GeForce 980m. Did the same thing you did and was able to get it to work with the short cable. Long cable through the link box didn't work at all. Just the long cable direct to the computer would work for about 20 seconds with lots of red scan lines and then it would shut off.


I believe it was probably something power related and that the HDMI port wasn't pushing enough volts over distance. I was able to get it to work using this adapter: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0194F1MPI/ and heres the full sized DisplayPort from the same company: https://www.amazon.com/Club3D-Displayport-1-2-HDMI-CAC-1070/dp/B017BQ8I54/

That's a good point, and [THIS] (https://smile.amazon.com/Club3D-Displayport-1-2-HDMI-CAC-1070/dp/B017BQ8I54?sa-no-redirect=1) would be the only adapter to do so that I would recommend.

>My main card is a 1080 Ti, could I use the DVI from that card plus the 3rd displayport?

That gives you an even better option, use the hdmi 2.0B ports, each is capable of HDR 4k output, look for an adapter for them, eg, something like this.

The issues I've run into in the past were related to monitors not handling the DisplayPort protocol properly (BenQ XL2720Z, XL2730Z firmware bugs) causing black screens, etc. With these Dell S2716DG monitors using DisplayPort, everything works amazingly and responds super quickly. I've been able to pull off at least four concurrent displays, one being the Vizio TV on DVI-I to HDMI, with every GPU I've tried it with (GTX 980 and TITAN X).

With the HP 27xw, you'll have to rely on DisplayPort to HDMI adapters since no DP input. I'm not sure how well passive DP to HDMI adapters will work on the GTX 1070 (whether it will work with 2+ passive adapters or not). They should work fine for 1080p60, but I haven't been able to test such a setup. Active adapters have the potential to increase latency, and may fail due to the nature of being active. However, they can properly convert DP to HDMI, resolving issues that may arise with (multiple) passive adapters.

Edit: The GTX 1070 should be more than capable of handling a four display setup, seeing how it surpasses the GTX TITAN X in benchmarks.

$30 DP 1.2 to HDMI 2.0 adapter that actually works: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B017BQ8I54

I know club3d is one of the few folks who’ve made a dp1.2 to hdmi2.0a.

Here’s a link. https://www.amazon.com/Club3D-Displayport-1-2-HDMI-CAC-1070/dp/B017BQ8I54

This adapter has a male dp and female hdmi, so you’d still need an hdmi cable in between.

Unfortunately I don’t think any has made a 2.0b adapter yet.

EDIT - looks like these cables are unidirectional. So not useful in your case. :(

You could just get a h170 motherboard coupled with [this] (https://www.amazon.ca/dp/B017BQ8I54/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_pG2FybGX0Z5QT)

The 170 chipsets work with Kaby, just need a bios update.

Any updates ? Have a similar setup. Currently running on iGFX at 1080p but want to get 4k 60hz over HDMI 2.0 using a gtx 960 or 970. Using a 4K TV as a display and no dp available. If a software fix isn't available, have you tried using a dp 1.2 to hdmi 2.0 adapter like this one? https://www.amazon.com/Club3D-Displayport-1-2-HDMI-CAC-1070/dp/B017BQ8I54

edit: just finished reading the thread. Sounds like this has been suggested. Did you try it? /u/redpsychedelic

Bad idea, too random and most adapters will be crap.

If op has a vive, he can use displayport for vr and hdmi for his monitor. Just needs to buy a male displayport to male mini display port cable.

If OP has a rift, then he needs two hdmi, so he should use the hdmi on the card for the rift and get a displayport to hdmi adapter for the monitor.

If his monitor supports hdmi 2.0, he needs this.

If his monitor is hdmi 1.4 or lower he needs this. A key for an hdmi 1.4 or lower adapter is that it states "eyefinity" this tells you it is an active adapter and thus will work in all situations. Cheaper passive adapters will not work in all displayports, they only work if the video card handles the active timing for the port, not all ports support this.

is a 2200g mobo case psu cheaper than a pentium + asrock deskmini. Is there anything that a 2200g htpc can do that my g4560 one cannot? i have a 4k hdr tv and i use this adapter

https://www.amazon.com/dp/B017BQ8I54/ref=twister_B0784TP7M2?_encoding=UTF8&psc=1
