Does a AMD 7950 / R9 280 Output 60hz at 4k ? via HDMI

[justwondering]

My main PC has a gtx 1080ti , I use the moonlight streaming app to stream to my 1080p pc and monitor upstairs , But I have just upgraded to a 4k TV upstairs for gaming on, Moonlight has 4K 60hz for streaming...

So my question really is :- does the AMD 7950 / R9 280 output 4k At 60hz via HDMI ?

The TV I have just bought accepts 4K at 60hz for PC and Gaming inputs a Samsung UE40MU6400 , the newer model of the one that seems pretty popular on the OCUK forums as a monitor replacement.

Simple answer is no, not via Hdmi only via display port.

Thank you for your reply , I have seen adapter cables for 14.99 that offer DP to HDMI 2.0 at 4k 60hz

Or I might just bite the bullet and buy a GT1030 that offers HDMI 2.0 so 4k 60HZ for streaming should do the trick ?!!?! I presume.

Would you suggest the cable would be good enough ? or perhaps just bite the bullet and go for the graphics card and be done with it !

If it were me i'd give the adapter cable a try , if nothing else you'll always find a use for it .

it may work with 4:2:0 colorspace... it wont work wit 4:4:4

Thank you for your replies , I have gone with a GT 1030 , based on my research it should be suitable for the Moonlight Streaming Program at 4K 60FPS , paid £54.99 for a GT1030.

You can get an adapter for older cards that does dp1.2 to hdmi2.0
