According to the Intel specs on the LGA Broadwells (if any of us live long enough to actually see these vaporchips ship!) it will run a 4K @ 60 Hz. Now, correct me if I'm wrong, but that can only be achieved on HDMI 2.1 and up. So when I look at displays I should ensure that they meet that standard, as if I get an HDMI 1.4 display it will step it down to 30 Hz? Also, in 4K, is there really any difference between a 32" TV and a 32" monitor?
 
This is puzzling from:

Notebook Check

"Up to three displays can be connected via DP 1.2/eDP 1.3 (max. 3840 x 2160 @ 60 Hz) or HDMI 1.4a (max. 3840 x 2160 @ 24 Hz). HDMI 2.0, however, is not supported."

If that is the case then I must be wrong about the HDMI 2.0+ support on the LGA Broadwells. Therefore, should the display be run from DisplayPort or ???
