So i have my older HTPC and my much new gaming PC. As per my usual process, when the gaming PC gets upgraded, the parts go into the HTPC, and then those oldest parts gets sold. I will be buying a 4k@120, HDR10+ tv soon, so I want to make sure the HTPC is up to snuff.
Relatedly, I've read that the Radeon 480x, via DP 1.2 cables, can do 4k@120 and 10bit color (HDR, HDR10, HDR10+). A good sanity check goes a long way though.
Edit:
For clarity, this HTPC will not be playing 3d games other than basic family friendly games. It will be used entirely for streaming Amazon, Netflix, Hulu, reddit football (albeit these streams aren't in 4k), and other Win 10 browsing.
I want to make sure that the parts below, via DP1.2 or HDMI 2, can run streamed content at full 4K, HDR10+, 120hz, etc.
Parts:
CPU: i5 3550p. Stock is 4x3.3gz, but I overclocked it to be a 2x3.7ghz. Runs games better as a dual core, higher clocked
GPU: Amd Radeon 480x
Cableing: DisplayPort 1.2 preferably.
Thanks!
