$ cvt -r 1920x1080

# 1920x1080 59.93 Hz (CVT 2.07M9-R) hsync: 66.59 kHz; pclk: 138.50 MHz
Modeline "1920x1080R"  138.50  1920 1968 2000 2080  1080 1083 1088 1111 +hsync -vsync

138.5MHz < 160Mhz, which a single link TMDS encoder is supposed to handle. 
But the maximum dotclock supported is often provided in the TMDS 
encoders config/register space.
