Intel say only an HDMI 2.0a converter is needed for HDR and specifically the older PS17X and MCDP2800 will work but I think they are exclusively talking about the most common HDR-10. Although no OS support is yet available for the various other flavours of HDR I think you need HDMI 2.0B for HLG, interestingly HDFury proved that the only thing needed for Dolby Vision compatibility in the output chip is to output a header as it works within standard colour depths of HDMI 2.0.

The Paradetech adapter page is most interesting to me because it claims DP1.2 -> HDMI2.0 with HDR. But HDMI standards seem to start referring to HDR only starting with HDMI2.0a, aka: HDR == metadata, whereas HDMI2.0 already has BT.2020 color space (without metadata i guess ?! manually config on display ?).

The PS186 used in the adapter is listed as DP1.4 -> HDMI2.0a, but it does not describe either whether the HDMI2.0a metadata requires a DP1.4 port on the PC or could also be supported with a DP1.2 port.

When i was young, i was playing adventure games on PCs, now the PC is the adventure game.
