Hi,

I just received my desktop today. Motherboard is Asus Deluxe x99, Graphic card as title mentions R9 295x2. But my computer port on the back of my PC doesn't have HDMI port it only got DVI port.

My question: If I buy DVI to HDMI cable would I be able to do 4k gaming? or Should I get DVI to DVI cable and put a HDMI to DVI adapter for my PB287Q monitor? Would any of that setting get me to play games at 4k resolution?

I heard on some forum topics that HDMI cable doesn't go over 30 fps on 4k monitor while DVI can go up to 60 fps then why the hell would they put HDMI and not DVI for 4k monitor?

I read so many reviews that R9 295x2 is good for 4k gaming. Always thought it would have HDMI port on R9 295x2 but apparantely not. Someone please help me what I should do. I got 1 day off tomorrow which is rare on business days, would appreciate it if I get the answer by the morning.

Thanks for the help in advance.
