The same shoddy cable situation happened when HDMI 2.1 first launched with the RTX 30 series. I remember when it first launched I was trying to hunt down a 3 m HDMI 2.1 cable only to find there was just none in the market. There were plenty that said "HDMI 2.1" on the tin. For 2 m it was usually fine but as soon as you go above that most just failed. It was only then that I realised for HDMI 2.1 48 Gbps that official certification badge was worth its salt. The HDMI 2.1 certification system has its own little ecosystem (QR code which you scan with an official app to verify that the badge is authentic). With a required bandwidth of 80 gbps the only way for a consumer to have confidence in their purchase of a functioning cable is to buy a certified cable.

[@Jabid21]

Precisely. Only cables that can run long lengths at the high bandwidth of HDMI 2.1 are active fiber optic cables that are certified. They are pricey but they are worth it. I’ve used it to run a HDMI 2.1 splitter from my living room to my bedroom so I can play my game console in both rooms. The cable (50ft) runs well at 4k120hz without any signal loss.

I tried all the BIOS options possible, even with everything off they still light up. One day I had to turn off my monitor from power and lo and behold, LEDs on the motherboard turned off! After investigating the subject more, I've found out, that my cable probably had pin 20 connected, which made monitor send power to my GPU, which then passed it to the mobo and light up the LEDs. After quick and dirty disassembly of the connector and cutting the pin 20 connection, my PC was able to go to power off without rainbow vomit. Once again - f... pins 20.

Out of curiosity, since you hinted at some nuance, what exactly does "visually lossless" mean? The fact they specify visually implies it isn't truely lossless (MP3 is famously lossy but could be considered "audibly lossless" at high bitrates). How do they standardise it? Is it some technical measure of pixel values or do they get a bunch of people to see if they can tell the difference in a blind test? How does that translate to eg those radiology workstations you mentioned as a use case compared to typical office applications or 3D games and such?

@@bosstowndynamics5488 as @MrHamof stated, there are some people that can spot the difference, but vast majority can't (outside of test patterns). I think if at least 70% of people can't spot the difference then it's considered lossless. Not sure about the number though...

[@elboitjo]

DSC is a standard by VESA, and you cannot tweak parameters as much as you can with MP3. The algorithm was tweaked with whatever study they did. Gains with DSC are low (around 2x, can be lower). Gains can be multiplied with other techniques like chroma subsampling (instead of the usual PC centric 4:4:4 RGB, you use 4:2:2 or 4:2:0 YCbCr).

Why do we even need all these standards if they're all so confusing and misleading? What's even the point, VESA? Just create separate standards with clear and proper rules and guidelines for manufacturers to follow. I understand 99% of people will never realize there's even any difference, but it's the 1% of time that we get burned that it ends up mattering. And again, if we're even bothering with standards, they should be set correctly. As if USB, HDMI, VRR, HDR etc. stuff wasn't confusing enough and so easy for manufacturers to mislead buyers, now we have to deal with DisplayPort being up there as well. I'm sure I'd never notice the difference between DSC on and off, but I simply want the peace of mind knowing that I got the full bandwidth and quality at my disposal especially if I'm paying so much for a GPU and a monitor - both, which should absolutely have the highest-end specs in that regard. Anyway, that's my ramble, it's not gonna change anything.
