On my Samsung I enabled uhd for hdmi1, rebooted and had 4k@60 and 50,24,23,30,59.94. A Denon AVR is in between. I used Standard HDMI 2.0 capable cables, cheap ones from Amazon Basic.
Sidenote:without setting the tv up correctly it did not even accept 4k 50, 60 manual set xrandr modes.
First decide what functions / features you expect from a system. Then decide for the hardware. Don't waste your money on crap.

The issues with 2160p50 and 2160p59.94 couldn't be related to 4:2:0 vs 4:2:2 / 4:4:4 compatibility could they? I know some displays only accept 4:2:0 at this resolution and frame rate, as they are still using the lower bandwith HDMI 1.4 physical hardware which can just about handle 4:2:0 at 2160p50 and 59.94, rather than the higher bandwith (optional) modes which add support for 4:2:2 and 4:4:4 at these frame rates.
AIUI this is one major reason that a 4:2:0 mode was added to the HDMI 2.0 spec, and meeting it is enough to be considered HDMI 2.0. (And given that pretty much all consumer video is, and will remain, 4:2:0, the only major issues is for UIs and Photo-type display applications, until you need 12 bit for HDR. Not sure if 10 bit is supported or not)

I have to add something, the 50p mode is missing for me ... while the 60 is there. I created an xorg.conf that adds it on top. Until I like to alter my edid.
