Wait, does it matter if the i5 10400 or the motherboard if the latter has vídeo onboard can’t support HDMI 2.X if this is defined by the video card?
I heard about the infamous UHD requirements from PowerDVD yet I am still puzzled if someone actually made these discs work using any PC:
Intel Software Guard Extensions (Intel SGX) technology and cyberlink Software players

I am aware of MAKEMKV but the problem is that some content can’t be converted to matroska and you need the decrypted disc at least to access them, like text pages, photo galleries or even the original menus from said disc. If we were talking about regular 1080p Blu-ray’s then these would be accessible with any hardware, not the case for 4Ks.
I am also investigating if these requirements can be bypassed (HDCP included) by simply using AnyDVD-HD to create a decrypted 1:1 copy to my SSD and/or using another software like DVDFAB player as a PowerDVD alternative.
My conclusion is that most motherboards for old Intel CPUs like the i5 10400 not only lack a more recent DisplayPort and HDMI, they also fail to mention HDCP anywhere, for their onboard videos. Meaning if one had this SGX CPU and also a SGX motherboard it would have to buy some nvidia video card as well, obviously recent.
Note: SGX has been abandoned in intels 11th gen.
The SGX requirement also entails that no AMD motherboard can be used.
I am still investigating what to do because I always kept untouched full ISO copies from these 4K discs precisely due to some contents not being able to be converted using makemkv to matroska, so in such cases you would need to play the original authoring, otherwise you would be limited to the movie and a few extra features in MKV.
