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.

    There are a lot of passive adapters out there that seem like black magic at first.

    Obviously has drawbacks, but you can also do displayport/hdmi to VGA passively.
