I personally don't have a need for it, but if someone has a 4K 120Hz TV or monitor without DisplayPort that they want to use as such, it's kinda stupid that they can't.
yeah, but that's the fault of the HDMI standards group. AMD cards could only support HDMI 2.1 if they closed their driver down. I guess this can't be fixed with a DP to HDMI adapter either, right?
my opinion: displayport is superior, and if I have a HDMI-only screen with supposed 4k 120Hz support I treat it as false info.
