I agree it could be justified that, at a minimum, the hdmi port can push the panels full spec. From my experience with hdmi cables(it's my job) there aren't really any differences in hdmi cables. Any cable produced back when 1080p became standard will run 4k120 no problem. At distances over 10ft or so the quality and signaling of the cable start to matter.

2022-01-19 20:29:45 +0000 UTCI can't imagine upgrading a monitor until microLED or QDOLED are reasonably affordable at 4K 144hz. Ever since getting my OLED tv i can't justify any less quality.

2022-01-16 20:56:18 +0000 UTCGreat episode! To briefly explain, hdmi 2.0 isn’t a thing anymore. It’s all under the hdmi 2.1 umbrella, while the new standard hdmi 2.1a is the new nomenclature with slight changes: https://www.theverge.com/platform/amp/2021/12/29/22856103/hdmi-2-1a-spec-standard-mess-cables-source-based-tone-mapping-ces-2022
