Hello,
I found this thread from 2015 with exactly my problem.
http://www.tomshardware.com/answers/id-2561224/2560x1440-graphics-card-gaming.html
briefly I need a (low profile) video card that is able to support a large screen 32 inches 1080 x 2560 with HDMI and DVI plug.
This thread had a perfect answer from:

Radeon R7 240 would do the job, it is a great budged card that can run smoothly and have 2GB of video RAM. You can even use it for some basic gaming, it will run all games on lower settings.
I was going to buy one but I found out (on Ebay) from its spec that the maximum resolution is 1920 x 1200 >...I am getting confused
So I am trying to understand the difference between DVI and HDMI since this card has both, i found different responses on Google. and got confused even more:!!!!
some say " it is the same",( then I am wondering why manufacturer make both if it is the same?
one says:
1) There's no discernible difference in quality between HDMI and DVI, as both are digital cables.
At the maximum 24-pin configuration, DVI supports HD video at a resolution of 1920x1200, as does HDMI.
The only difference is that unlike HDMI, DVI cables don't all support HDCP copy protection as standard.......

ASUS R7 240 specs
GPU Radeon R7 240
Memory Interface 128-bit
Stream Processors Not Specified by the Manufacturer
Outputs 1 x Single-Link DVI-D 1 x HDMI 1 x VGA
Maximum Resolution HDMI: 4096 x 2160 DVI-D: 1920 x 1200 VGA: Not Specified by the Manufacturer
My though is the first one is unaware of the new technology so he says that's the same. I beleive if the second one says this is it because that was the card is capable of.
can someone please confirm???
This is not for gaming, only for real estate work and beautiful screen, and quiet computer/
Pierre and confused...
