One of the first processors with an HDMI 2.1 input and output, supporting a bitrate of 48 Gbit/s, as well as advanced gaming features, including support for Variable Refresh Rate (VRR) up to 360 Hz. A major system software update is also planned for the end of this year, which will bring improvements to both new and existing Envy processor models.
The Envy Core MK2 video processor is the most affordable way to enter the Envy ecosystem. The novelty is equipped with an updated NVIDIA 5060 GPU, an improved processor and twice the amount of RAM compared to the first-generation model. madVR Labs claims that the device is fully ready to work with 8K video. It offers the same proprietary dynamic HDR tone compression, aspect ratio control, and AI upscaling that defined the Core MK1, but now complemented with more powerful gaming capabilities.
