Nvidia 1080 + HDMI 2.0 b ?

[m1tp2king]

hi. I see there is a new HDMI 2.0b with the Nvidia 1080.

what does HDMI 2.0b mean? how does it differ from HDMI 2.0 ?

I ask this because I plan to connect my Nvidia GPU to a 4K 48 inch TV (Samsung).

I may buy a 980 Ti now and connect it to a 4K 48 inch TV with HDMI 2.0

when the Nvidia 1080 Ti comes out, I plan to connect it to the same TV (only with HDMI 2.0)

will the Nvidia 1080 Ti with HDMI 2.0b work with the 4K TV with HDMI 2.0 ? will it work with an old HDMI 2.0 cable ?

should I wait for a 4K TV with HDMI 2.0b ???

another question- i have the HDMI 2.0 4K cable.

will the Nvidia 1080 Ti ( HDMI 2.0b ) and a new 4K TV (with HDMI 2.0b) work with a cable that is only HDMI 2.0 ? do I need to buy a new HDMI 2.0b cable ?

will they ever release a HDMI 2.0b cable ?

thanks

Short answer: yes, it will work with your HDMI 2.0 cable.
