Ok I have a Mining rx 470 Powercolor gpu, and a passive dvi to hdmi adapter that I tested with my back up gpu (gtx 1050) and it got 144hz on my 165hz monitor, so i know the adapter works. But in the display settings on the rx 470 it only shows 60hz, the main reason i bought the adapter is so my 1 output dvi rx 470 could display atleast 120hz or 144hz on my 165hz monitor which only has 2 hdmi ports (that go to 144hz) and a DP port that goes to 165hz. please help.
