I don’t know, can you? Do many TVs support VRR through HDMI <-> HDMI connections, but not DP <-> HDMI?

I’ve not got one for testing right now. But some googling does seem to indicate this is a sticking point for gaming, and why GPU makers put the latest HDMI ports on their cards and ponied up the licensing fees.
