HDMI 2.1 - Up to 8k 30fps (4k 120fps)

If you want to go more high-end than I did, an HDMI 2.1 dummy plug can push higher refresh rates and resolutions. I didn’t start here because I wanted to test the concept first, but it’s a good option if you’re chasing the best possible visual fidelity.

Pros

+Higher bandwidth for better resolution/refresh options
+Good pick if you care about top-tier visual fidelity

Cons

-More expensive than basic 4K 60 dummy plugs
