There is just limited and full range. Limited range is basically a left-over
from analog TV.

RGB video over HDMI is limited range for CE timings (i.e. 720p, 1080p, 4k)
unless signaled otherwise through the AVI InfoFrame. And you can only
signal that if the sink supports it in the EDID (and doesn't lie about it).

Typically TVs follow CE timings, so hooking up a PC to a TV may very well
cause problems (and often does).
