hi all,
I am considering a new 5k2k display with high refresh rate (Dell U4025QW).
That's a huge investment for me and would hopefully last me many years.
I am a bit anxious and insecure after reading recent news that the HDMI Forum somehow seems to block AMD's open source drivers that would allow for higher refresh rates.
Maybe somebody has experience or ideas to share how to cleverly move forward?
My current setup uses an AMD Ryzen 7 7840HS with (integrated) Radeon 780M Graphics.
The Display Port only allows for 4K@60Hz. So for 5K, I would not have a high refresh rate I am aiming for. Hence my reluctance after reading the HDMI news.
There is a USB4 port that should allow for 8K@60Hz. But I am not sure that would work with a display's Thunderbolt 4 port, encapsulating Display Port again.
I have the option to attach an external AMD Radeon XT 7600M. That may allow for higher refresh rates with Display Port, but I simply cannot find documentation on it. So again, may be stuck with HDMI.
Grateful for any ideas or ways to unstuck my thoughts on this
