Yeah, but unfortunately most TVs don’t support DisplayPort. Although that reminds me someone made patches to the Linux kernel to enable 4k@120 Hz through HDMI without color degradation on AMD GPUs. I haven’t heard much about them since they were brought up in media, but if I recall correctly CachyOS included them in their kernel.
Explain?
The HDMI consortium are shitheads who demand royalties, and all Linux PCs are gimped to not have modern HDMI features because of it.
Isn’t the issue with open sourcing their code, and so for example Nvidia closed source drivers support everything?

This play port is superior and is what is used on most high-end GPUs.
bone apple tea
xD now I can’t fix it

Are there many people that care about “high fidelity gaming” and HDMI features Linux can’t support - AND trying to play on a standard TV?
Are you implying that gaming on a 120 Hz 4k OLED TV is somehow bad?
A big reason why Linux is popping off as much as it is lately, is because of HTPCs, so yes
But they’re fine for that
Are you sitting 1 foot from the 56’ screen? No? Then display port is more than fine.
Did you mean HDMI?
No, but I did respond to the wrong comment. Whoops
IDK I’ve got two 1440p monitors connected via DP. I can’t say I’ve encountered any fidelity issues.
