So in my search for a gaming projector I was doing a lot of research, and everyone seemed to think that we cannot do 60hz per eye in 1080p over hdmi, which was the case with hdmi 1.4a. But according to wikipedia hdmi 1.4b has been out since 2011 and does support this. Why is there no talk about this?

2 different topics IMO. I thought this deserved it's own thread as it's relevant to more than just my projector search. This seems like info that everyone on the 3d subforum should know. But I had never heard of it and a search turned up nothing.
BTW, and I'm not trying to be snide at all, but it's faux pas.

I've pointed this out a lot of times. It's optional. And Silicon Image has been selling the part for over a year now (with the necessary bandwidth). They used to list the price on their website and it was 6.xx dollars for the chipset. LOL. Of course, very few TVs included it in their 2013 models because it wasn't of marketing benefit to them.
They'll market HDMI 2.0 though, so better late than never? Expect it to be common next year and for Nvidia to announce support for the 1080p@60fps format.
EDIT: For clarity sake, you need a display that has an HDMI chipset running at 325mhz. This is very rare (and I'm not aware of any projectors which use it). You'd also need Nvidia to support the format, which that haven't to this point. Expect that to change next year.
This is also why a couple sets have undocumented 1080p@120hz input. Because they were using that HDMI chipset in their 2013 model.
