AMDGPU Driver Now Supports HDMI 2.1 on Linux

After years of waiting, AMD has finally submitted new patches for its AMDGPU driver, enabling native open-source HDMI 2.1 support on Linux in the UK. This major step forward is thanks to Valve’s quiet push for better support. The new Fixed Rate Link (FRL) patches are a significant improvement for Radeon GPUs on the platform.

The HDMI Forum’s policies had previously restricted the development of HDMI 2.1 support on Linux. However, with these new patches, AMD is moving closer to open-source HDMI 2.1 support. This will be a welcome change for UK users who have been limited by the lack of support.

The new patches are a significant step forward for AMD, and the company is now one step closer to providing full HDMI 2.1 support on Linux. The update will bring numerous benefits to UK users, including improved colour and behaviour of their Radeon GPUs. As the news spreads, UK users are eagerly awaiting the update.

Valve’s involvement in the development of the new patches has been instrumental in bringing about this change. The company’s quiet push for better support has paid off, and UK users will soon be able to analyse the benefits of the new HDMI 2.1 support. With the update, AMD is expected to provide a more seamless user experience.
