Club 3D Intros DisplayPort 1.2 to HDMI 2.0 Active Adapters with 4K-60 Hz Support

[tommybhoy]

With AMD announcing software support for HDMI 2.0 and DisplayPort 1.2 to HDMI 2.0 active adapters with its Radeon Software Crimson Edition, various AMD AIB partners could jump in with such adapters. Club 3D, which has been making dongles, converters, and adapters, besides AMD Radeon graphics cards, announced its entry. The company announced two active adapters - standard DisplayPort 1.2 to HDMI 2.0, and mini-DisplayPort 1.2 to HDMI 2.0. Both support 4K Ultra HD (3840 x 2160 pixels), with 60 Hz refresh rate display mode. The company didn't announce pricing.

Remember some of the red team members been using 60Hz HDMI 2.0 for aaaaages now, pretty poor show imho as 'paying' customers have been screaming out for them.

Should have put a 'few' in front of paying as ive seen actual disappointed users not happy about the time frame they are waiting for it.

Yes, agree you should have looked elsewhere, but AMD has been plugging the adapter since don't know when.

4K large panel TV pricing has fell through the floor, could actually be more in the wild than 4K desktop gamers now, that's a huge market lost to Nvidia.

And if they don't have a clue that their gaming@30hz and it looks ****, that's another customer lost to Nvidia.

I'm not advocating the 'it doesn't have 2.0 support crowd, I'm being more critical on the lines of its been sitting in the drawer for who knows how long.

I posted a vid of it getting shown off a few weeks back, users wanted info on availability and iirc, they were ignored.

AMD have their reasons why they didn't bring the adapter to market instead of leaving it to partners, it doesn't look good when trying to improve the Radeon image, it's a hard enough task as it is, considering your top end gpu is slower and more expensive than the competition.

I remember when AMD were a no brainer for faster/higher spec/ superior longevity-I bought those ones.

Seeing as no one has a clue for the possible delay how can someone clam that the delay was unreasonable or not, just because you have seen a red team member using it that does not mean that there was no issues.

Any delay by nature is unreasonable as it's something no one wants, and there shouldn't have been any issues in the first place, for reasons stated above.

Brand image is king and that's why AMD/Nvidia are where they are.

What a load of codswallop.
Not granting what someone wants or right away does not make a delay unreasonable by nature.

That's what the chief@AMD said while viewing the migration figures.

I love how dramatic this place forum gets

All 2 or 3 of those people 'screaming out' will finally be happy. Screaming out, lol..

Lol, reading back does look a bit dramatic

Furys marketed as THE 4k card, but what a massive fail not supporting 60Hz.

You bought the ****ing thing dude, eyes wide open
