Does this unit support 4k at 120hz passthrough? null

There are three inputs (labeled with "8K") that support 40gbit bandwidth HDMI 2.1, which includes 4K/120Hz (or 8K/60Hz) w/ HLG, HDR, Dolby Vision, HDR10+, and Dynamic HDR. These three inputs also support HDMI 2.1 features like Variable Refresh Rate (VRR), Quick Frame Transport (QFT), and Auto Low Latency Mode (ALLM). HDMI 2.1 also supports eARC (vs. HDMI 2.0's ARC support), though this is unlikely to be an important feature for a receiver user. The other three inputs are older HDMI 2.0. In March 2023 when I'm writing this, those three inputs should be enough to cover the most common sources of HDMI 2.1 content: Xbox Series X/S, Playstation 5, and a PC w/ an HDMI 2.1 GPU (like a 30- or 40-series NVIDIA card). For the more technically inclined: although the Xbox and PC support full 48Gbit HDMI 2.1, the provided 40Gbit is sufficient for 4K 120Hz with 10-bit color at 4:4:4, so there should be no issue with anything 4K w/ this receiver. This is a very strong mid-range receiver for modern users, but it may be something you end up replacing in 5ish years as 8K becomes more prevalent and you may want full HDMI 2.1 bandwidth and more inputs that support it.
