Onboard Intel iGPU has a HDMI 1.4 port?
Not for this kind of money.
It should have a MegaChips LSPCon.

Just FYI, your comment about wanting 5GbE on this board? You really don't want it.
It would have to be on the DMI bus, which on a system with this board is likely already saturated by m.2 SSDs (because who is going to spend $600+ on a mobo and not use RAIDed PCIe x4 SSDs?). Throwing yet another device under the DMI that can completely saturate it is just compounding the issue that already exists.
If you really think you need 5GbE (which is not a lot of people, have you seen the costs of even a basic switch?), wait for X299 where it can get its own PCIe link, or throw a 10gbE card in the second PCIe graphics card slot.
