The HDMI Forum, responsible for the HDMI specification, continues to stonewall open source. Valve's Steam Machine theoretically supports HDMI 2.1, but the mini-PC is software-limited to HDMI 2.0. As a result, more than 60 frames per second at 4K resolution are only possible with limitations.

I don't know this area well. But I have a strong preference for all port shapes to be the same where possible. Can USB-C shaped heads do the same thing as DisplayPort? If not now, is it possible to make it in the future.

Not that this cube would run any modern game at 4k and more than 60 fps.

4k 120hz on the steam cube?? Sounds like a job for Lossless Scaling 4x Frame Gen! /s

How illegal would it be to provide an AI model with a button "modify the GPU driver until HDMI 2.1 features are working properly"?
