Item Wanted: Display Port to HDMI 2.1 4K 120Hz Adapter
Packaging Essential: No
Desired Age: Any
Location: Any
Willing to accept a shipped item: Yes
Ballpark/Budget Amount: Lets talk.


Looking for an adapter that can convert the Displayport 1.4 on my GFX card to HDMI 2.1 4K 120Hz on TV. Would be a plus if the adapter can handle 10bit colour, HDR and VRR as well.
Was wondering what are you guys using on your similar setups.

Also, I'm using a monitor on the single HDMI port on my GFX card and BIOS appears on that screen at POST. I could connect the TV straight to the HDMI but then I would lose BIOS screen on the monitor and have it appear on the TV which is not ideal as I'm always tinkering in the BIOS and the TV is not always on nor directly accessible.
 
10bit hdr at 4k120 can be possible with something like CLUB3D DisplayPort 1.4 to HDMI 4K120Hz HDR Active Adapter M/F DisplayPort™1.4 adapter

I've used quite a few club3d cables and adapters and they're really good.

Vrr on the other hand is difficult to find with displayport to hdmi.
I'm not an expert, but I think it's because you're converting displayport to hdmi, you're using an active adapter to convert the signal, so it's not possible to have Vrr enabled.

I think your only option for 4k120 and vrr is to use the tv with hdmi on the gfx card's hdmi port.

Sorry the ridiculously late response.

Thank you for the excellent advice. Will check out that adapter.
And yes, even though its not ideal, I've been having to use the TV directly on the HDMI port.
