It seems like CES 2025 is going to be a big event for tech enthusiasts with the anticipated unveiling of the HDMI 2.2 standard. The buzz around CES indicates that this new HDMI standard will debut hand in hand with next-generation gaming GPUs, promising significant enhancements in capabilities.
We can expect the CES lineup to overflow with cutting-edge technology, and a brand-new HDMI standard is set to replace the current HDMI 2.1 ports. As reported by ComputerBase, the HDMI Licensing Administrator has hinted at showcasing a “groundbreaking” technology. While they haven’t explicitly called it “HDMI 2.2,” it’s a safe bet that this new version will introduce superior bandwidth, enhanced resolution support, and higher refresh rates.
The HDMI Forum is set to reveal a fresh iteration of the HDMI specifications, with the promise of incorporating advanced HDMI technology and greater bandwidth. This enhancement will enable a wider array of higher resolutions and refresh rates, which will pair with a new HDMI cable. Thanks to these advancements, content creators in sectors like television, film, and gaming stand to benefit from vastly improved quality options, facilitating multiple distribution platforms.
However, it’s crucial to highlight that HDMI LA’s statement leaves the door open regarding the next iteration’s naming scheme. While there’s always a chance for it to be a refined version of HDMI 2.1, historical trends suggest we’re likely looking at an entirely new standard.
Currently, the specifics of HDMI 2.2 remain a bit of a mystery. Considering the present HDMI 2.1 can manage up to 48 Gbps and resolutions up to 10,240 x 4,320 pixels, HDMI 2.2 is expected to surpass these impressive benchmarks.
At this point, no GPU manufacturers have confirmed the inclusion of HDMI 2.2 in their upcoming products. The latest advancement we’ve witnessed in this space is with DisplayPort 2.1, which debuted with AMD’s RDNA 3 GPU series and is rumored to be part of NVIDIA’s forthcoming “RTX 5000” Blackwell GPUs. If HDMI 2.2 is officially announced, it opens the door for future GPUs to support this standard, though for now, we remain in the realm of speculation due to the lack of concrete details.
