You'll probably have to wait for the next chip. It's too bad there's no native 2.0 and no DP 1.3/1.4 like AMD and NVIDIA have in their new GPUs. I still haven't found a DP to HDMI 2.0 adapter that works well for 4K 4:4:4 and adding $25-50 for an adapter to the cost of the chip is stupid. /rant
Wonder if they'll have on-board ThunderBolt 3. If so, eschewing the on-board HDMI port and getting a thunderbolt to multi-display USB 2.0a adapter would suffice (if such adapters are yet on the market). I guess we'll have to see what port options exist on the upcoming NUC's (since I'm looking to upgrade my first gen NUC for something fully 4K ready).
The additional hardware that is mentioned would be on the motherboard so it is an integrated HDMI 2 port from the end users perspective of not having to use an external dongle/adapter but it isn't from the manufacturer's/BOM (bill of material) perspective as they have to add an extra chip to support it instead of wiring it directly to the chip.
Well they could just drop hdcp and tell the MAFIA to get lost since they want the best experience for there customer not for for a legal racket. I don't thing anyone would me bothered by this.

"It's just like this other thing that looks sort of similar but is completely unrelated."Why are there still people who think English works like this?
