On a couple of 4K Samsung monitors I have, HDMI port 1 is HDMI 1.4 and HDMI port 2 is HDMI 2.0.
Couldn't be simpler. The HDMI version is on the port label. Something about the situation makes me chuckle.
- radicality 2y agoWhy aren’t they all hdmi 2.0, isn’t it backwards compatible? Or it’s just to save them a $ while technically still being able to advertise it as hdmi 2.0 ?
