DisplayPort over USB 3, anyone try it?

Hey guys, another question. Have you heard that USB 3 can act as the transport for a DisplayPort signal? If so, has anyone tried it?

I'd like to know if there's a way to get a Freesync / adaptive sync signal to a TV with USB 3, like one of the new Samsung HDR / 10 bit UHD Tvs that just came out at Best Buy.

They only have HDMI 2 and USB 3 ports on them, not displayport. I was wondering if the USBs are just the physically connector / transport for a displayport signal, in which case adaptive sync / free sync might be supported.
