Spec says "Type 1 adaptors can support DVI or HDMI up to a 165MHz TMDS clock rate."

And I've definitely seen HDMI dongles that can't deal with
eg. 1080p 12bpc @225MHz. We don't want users with black screens
out of the box, so NAK.

If you want to "overclock" your hardware you can do so by setting up
the modeline manually.
