So the only way of getting 4K (hdmi 2.0) is from a Nvidia shield (no thanks android tv) or a 9xx video card correct?
Ive just ordered a 4k tv for my new house and dont want to use the gimped smart tv os if possible. Surely there has to be other options..
The fuck are you talking about?
970s and 980s also have an HDMI 2.0

Why do people never do their research first

I wonder if being above the trees helps to avoid the bugs
HDMI 2.0 is for the 30+ framerates, a framerate you won't be getting from any card

I'm guessing you mean,
>"how do I get 4K, HDMI 2.0 content on my new 4K TV, I don't want Android TV"
While high-end nVidia cards do HDMI 2.0, they still don't do 10-bit video. Gotta go to the Quadro series for that, and those get into costing more than your TV. Same for AMD, only Firepro, and same for Iris Pro GPUs from Intel. Gotta be the "P6300" or newer Skull Canyon Iris Pro chips.
I think the Shield is actually the cheapest way to get full 10-bit 4k Video on your TV. So the new Intel NUC with Skull Canyon is your cheapest, non-android TV, 60hz, 10-bit, option available.

Yes, OP Spent a shit-ton on a TV with shit nobody makes content for yet.
oh OP wants 4k/60hz
yeah thats only DP 1.2/HDMI2.0 which can do that.
DP1.3 will offer 4k/120hz

i just made a build with the new g4400 skylake pentium cpu. It should support 4k@60fps and have hevc 8bit hardware decode (not 10bit). At full load consume 48Watt, but if you use it just for movies it will always go in hw mode.
