The new Radeon Software "Crimson Edition" drivers from AMD support DisplayPort to HDMI 2.0 dongles and Club3D is one of the first firms to launch one of these adapters. The dongles will be available in DisplayPort and Mini DisplayPort versions and will be sold for $35.

This will finally enable AMD's Fury cards to output 4k content at 60fps to UHDTVs.
For the past years Club 3D has been offering a growing range of high quality Audio/Video adapters and cables which provide the best connection between your Graphics solution and Display device. From PC Gamers to Graphic designers and from Video editors to Air Traffic Controllers; Club 3D’s high quality Adapters and Cables find their way to a wide variety of applications.

Today we announce an important addition to our A/V Adapters range; the highly anticipated (Mini) DisplayPort™ 1.2 to HDMI™ 2.0 4K UHD Active Adapters.

In the world of PC Gaming, a 60Hz refresh rate is widely regarded as a requirement for a smooth and fluid gaming experience. Until HDMI™ 2.0 was announced in 2013, it was not possible to display games on any Ultra HD Monitor or Television lacking a DisplayPort™ 1.2 input at 60Hz because of bandwidth limitations of the HDMI™ interface. Key advantage of the HDMI™ 2.0 over the 1.4 specification is the increased bandwidth, which enables the full 4K UHD 3840x 2160p experience at 60Hz.

With the new Club 3D (mini)DisplayPort 1.2 to HDMI™ 2.0 4K UHD Active Adapter we aim to provide the smoothest 60Hz solution for anyone who is looking to use their HDMI™ 2.0 enabled 4K UHD Television or monitor for living room gaming or (semi) professional applications like photo and video editing. The adapters support HDCP 2.2, 24bit color and 4:4:4 color sampling.

As the HDMI™ 2.0 interface finds its way to more Ultra HD TV’s and monitors, Club 3D maximizes the compatibility between High End AMD, Nvidia and Intel graphics solutions and 4K UHD Display devices with the CAC-1070 and 1170 Active Adapters, available end of December. MSRP $ 35 (ex local sales tax).
