Here's a GPU with DisplayPort 2.1 https://www.mindfactory.de/product_info.php/16GB-Sapphire-Ra...

Here's a Display with DisplayPort 2.1 and higher Resolution&Refresh Rate than you specified https://www.mindfactory.de/product_info.php/57Zoll--144-78cm...

That monitor was released not three months ago; I was describing the 99.99999% case. DP 2.0 is rare enough that an article[1] was produced this year about its scarcity.
