Hello, I just got the CAC-2505 USB‑C® to HDMI™ 2.1 Adapter 8K60Hz adapter. It works great at the native 4K@144Hz of my monitor. Even without DSC, which is nice (Laptop only has DP Alt 1.4 mode, monitor has HDMI 2.1). Also with variable refresh rate support.
I though it was the perfect adapter. Before that I used a CableMatters USB-C to 8K HDMI® Cable (201392-BLK-3). That also did 4K@144Hz without DSC – but did not support VRR.
Now the downpart: I am unable to use VCP features with the CAC-2505 adapter. Like set the monitor’s brightness via Tools like Monitorian or NirSoft’s ControlMyMonitor.
Which is very sad – that worked before using the native HDMI port or the CableMatters USB-C connection. Is that something that a firmware update might solve in the future?
