If the pump add a pipe for great performance, this does not mean that the performance will increase. It all depends on the pump. There are also HDMI 2.0a means that there is stock, but does not mean that SoC should give all that designed HDMI 2.0a. HDMI 2.0a is just the physical interface that is displayed on the external device. In the case of Gemini Lake it is only for UltraHD@60Hz

First impression of Asrock 4105-ITX:
Pros:
-LibreElec Nightly works fine
-playback of h264/h265 with hardware acceleration works fine
-VAAPI deinterlacing seems to work
-HD-audio passthrough working
Cons:
-HDMI handshake issues again... I've had this issue in the past with my haswell NUC. Sometimes when Kodi changes the refreshrate, it ends up in a black screen. I've changed my AVR and TV since then, so i don't believe the reason for this issue is my other hardware. It was fine on Apollo Lake Asrock board (maybe due to the LSPCon Converter Chip??)!

I wait for test results of UltraHD HDR and 3D MVC too. The request to check for OpenELEC and whenever possible for Windows 10

ok.
I downloaded some 4k HDR Videos. First played them directly from USB drive on my Sony TV. HDR Icon is showing up. Now i know how the video is supposed to look.
installed Windows 10 with fall 2017 updates, let it update to latest version with windows update. After installing Intel Graphics Driver 15.60.2.4901 i can say:
HDR not working. HDR Icon in SonyTV not showing up, testvideo's colors look washed out and HDR switch in Windows Settings not is not available!

So if Intel decide not to support HDR, is there any hope of getting HDR out of this thing? I was planning on upgrading from my Haswell but if theres no HDR support I might as well just wait...
