Maybe a dumb question… if I used a DisplayPort to HDMI 2.1 adapter, would I get 4K at 120Hz on the Steam Machine and my LG CX tv?

If the article didn’t require accepting cookies to read it I would :D (just being snarky)

Nah, I don’t blame you. The list of crap that I had to allow under “required” to read the article was preposterous.

Depends on the adapter and source. You may find issues when playing HDPC protected content of you buy a low quality adapter.

DisplayPort to HDMI doesn't need an adapter since DP has an alt signal mode with HDMI support.
Although I'm not sure 2.1 signalling is available yet or not.

DP++ HDMI support tells the GPU to output HDMI. If the GPU can’t output HDMI 2.1 over an HDMI port, it can’t output it over a DisplayPort (as a general rule; you could theoretically wire the DP for a higher standard, but why would you?)
