Dears,
when looking through the threads in this forum, i got the impression, that many posts are pretty old. Therefore i am starting a new one (Just to mention: Googling for HTPC Graphic Cards leads to 99,99% to gaming related posts and ads, wich is obviously not my area of interest).
My Question would be:
Are there any hardware recomendetions (single components or combinations) that are well suitable/well established for:
4k playback from a Windows HTPC with Kodi 19.4?
Preferrably with the latest HDR formats (Dolby Vision, HDR+ etc....)
Output of Video and Audio (including HD Audio passthrough) through one single HDMI Plug would be desired for easy connection to the AVR.
HTPC Case Form Factor: ATX
Any qualified feedback and practical experiences are welcome! Preferrably on succesfull setups. But also feedback on what NOT to use is definitely beneficial
