4K: Powering HDMI 2.0 devices with Mini DP 1.2 GPU?

[Darthmullet]

I do not know of a graphics card that has HDMI 2.0 as of yet. Mine does have Mini Displayport 1.2, which can handle 4k @ 60 hz.

Does anyone know if connecting a next-gen HDMI 2.0 4k TV to the dp 1.2 will allow the HDMI 2.0 to run at its full speed for 4k at 60 hz? I've looked around and can't find an answer. Would be a shame to get a 4k television that can't run properly off my beefy graphics card.

i've just bought Sony X850C 4K tv and, when it arrives a will test my adapter with this new Crimson driver on my 295X2.

I just have to bought the HDMI 2.0 cable (18Gbps transfer rate).

Sadly it was all nothing but lies, I received an email before dispatch saying there was a delay. I just now received another email saying there is going to be another delay due clarification.
I checked their website and club3d's website and all the specs they had is gone and the main picture of the specs has now changed to 4K at 60 4.2.0.
It was nothing but a sham!

I got one of those Club 3D adapters, hoping it would display 4k @ 60hz on 2015 MacBook Pro with R9 M370X, but no dice with 4K Samsung. I guess it's up to Apple to update the drivers?

you should put it on ebay. i figured i could get some money for it since its sold out everywhere. i put it on ebay for $80 buy it now. it sold in 24 hours. i wish i would have put it up for $100. i didnt think it would sell, but i figured if someone is willing to pay $80 for it, i dont mind waiting for amazon to get new stock.

The 3d club adapter works fine, I have it working on two 4k tvs (LG and Seiki) at 50hz (due to my SP3 limitation). However I haven't been able to get it to work on the Samsung. So it might be a TV issue not laptop.
