[SOLVED] Aorus FI27Q Displayport to HDMI cable, what to buy for it to work properly HELP

[MGA123321]

Hello,

So I got this [Aorus FI27Q ], and my laptop has an 1660ti which has only an HDMI port as output but the monitor to do 165hz and use nvidia G Sync feature it needs to connect via the displayport not the HDMI.

Issue is i dont know if any displayport to hdmi cable will work, cuz i bought one and it didn't work, so i went to the show to troubleshoot it and return it, and it seems testing other 2 cables did not work, do you guys have any advice what cable should I get to have tghe 165hz and the gsync option working for this monitor and my laptop?

Thanks!
