That's assuming you're trying to avoid DSC. With DSC you can easily get 1440@240Hz even on DP1.4.

Most monitors don't ship with DP2.0, because it's just not necessary. All modern GPUs support DSC, so monitor OEMs take that free 3x bandwidth reduction.

Nonetheless, Nvidia shipping RTX 4000 without DP2.0 is baffling.

Yes, I'm avoiding DSC because Nvidia GPUs have an issue with DSC when switching to full screen games that cause a black screen for several seconds.

DP 1.4 also does have enough bandwidth for 1440p@240hz without HDR, so I only have this issue with HDR on.
