[SOLVED] Netflix in 4K issues

[Jimbo01]

I'm running a Ryzen 2600X and Vega 56 in my PC. I've recently bought an Asus 4K monitor in order to watch Netflix in 4K. I could only watch in 1080p, Netflix told me:
'Sorry but we need to have Intel's 7th generation Core CPU and NVIDIA. You should meet these requirements'

Please, somebody tell me this isn't true after I've spent money on a 4K monitor.

It IS true. To meet the copy protection requirements, only Intel CPUs. See this article -- https://www.tomshardware.com/news/netflix-kaby-lake-cpu-4k,33070.html

Would a Firestick sort things out?

Actually you can use AMD CPU's according to more recent information:
