Do not tell me just "no", pls explain why you say "no"
Because its physically impossible. Its beyond the bandwidth offered of HDMI 2.0. Nothing can change the physical properties of the HDMI protocol.

Just because madVR is in 10-bit mode doesn't necessarily mean your GPU outputs 10-bit to the TV.

The best you can do is 60Hz 4K 4:4:4 8-bit, or if you really want 10-bit for some reason its down to 4:2:2.
Its a shame they didn't increase the HDMI bandwidth slightly more to allow this, but alas they didn't.

HDMI 2.1 is supposed to be officialy announced at CES in January. All so far known about it is that it'll add dynamic HDR support - if it'll also increase the bandwidth is unknown (to me, anyway).
