It won't work at all. Not implemented.
First decide what functions / features you expect from a system. Then decide for the hardware. Don't waste your money on crap.

hi guys maybe a short sum up is necessary as this topic is a few months old and there are many answers already.
my system:
intel pentium G4400 (skylake dual-core)
nvidia gtx 950
linux mint 17.3
kodi 17
question:
what is currently the best way do get 4k-10bit-HEVC hardware acceleration with kodi under linux?
As I noticed, my GTX950 is limited by VDPAU not being able to address 10 Bit range.
Would switching to my current CPU's successor Pentium G4560 fix the problem? Or should I exchange the GTX950 for an RX460?
Thanks for your advice!

Kabylake is the only option + building Kodi agile from source.

Don't forget Apollo Lake, this with millhouse builds also support 4k 10bit hevc.
Connect 55 UHD SL4xx / Onkyo TX-SR444 / Intel Apollo Lake / Ziggo Mediabox XL / 2x upc ci+ nagravision module / using dvb-c and dvb-s(19,2/23,5/28.2)

To be honest I find it a litte bit hard to follow you answers but what I got is that currently even Kaby Lake wont play HEVC10bit@4k stutter free but with the future version of Kodi this problem should fix itself?
