Where to they claim that? I think you've been successfully fooled by the HDMI
forum, which allows anyone to implement some boring subfeatures noone is
interested in and leave out the only thing important, namely higher
frequencies, and still claiming newer standards (1.4 in this case) compliance
regardless (for receiver devices which don't have such a high resolution this
actually even makes sense). But don't worry AMD isn't the only one with "hdmi
1.4" and not supporting higher frequencies. In fact AMD clearly states max
resolution over hdmi is 1920x1200.

found some other doc...
And yes low refresh rates are always a way around that, I think it's typically
not mentioned because it may not work (some monitors really might not like it).</pre>
