Dear guys,
I have a very interesting situation that I cannot find the solution (yet) hence trying to ask here.
Graphic Card is Tuf RX 6800 XT
System; 5600x + B550f Strix Gaming Wifi
Display 1; 144hz QHD Gigabyte G27Q
Display 2; Sony X950G 55” 4k 60hz 1080p 120hz
So, Just a couple days ago I bought HDMI 2.0 cable, and fits it to my TV, I am quiet surprised here, knowing how my system can only be plugged into HDMI 3, the plug which stated as arc/earc option too. If I plug it to HDMI 1 2 4, which is just normal HDMI plug no arc/earc feature, it simply said “no signal”
I try turning it on, off, unplug and plug back in, nothing works, only works when I put it to that HDMI 3 which has earc option.
Is this because 6800 xt got 2.1 port hence it doesn’t really match the port 2.0 on my tv and somehow maybe, hdmi earc / arc port allows it for whatever reason?
Apart from all this, everything works as it should, but always wanna learn what’s reason behind something and if there’s a workaround, just in case. Because for whatever reason, I do believe there could be higher input lag on this earc/arc port, not sure if it’s just my assumption, but feels like it.
