[SOLVED] BENQ XL2410T/XL2420T 120hz

[NoTraX]

Hey, so I have both of these monitors, which have HDMI 1.3, that means they're restricted to 60hz on 1080p through HDMI even though they are 120hz compatible monitors. I just ugpraded my GPU from a 980 to a 5700 xt.
When using the 980 I could run both at 120hz with 1 DP and 1 DVI.
Now after the upgrade I noticed that my GPU doesn't have a DVI output, only 3 DP and 1 HDMI. First thought is of course run 2 dp cables? Well the xl2410t doesn't have a DP input,
Is there any way to make this monitor run at 120hz with my gpu? I wanted to ask if I'd be able to get 120hz running a HDMI to DVI cable or using a DVI to HDMI adapter.

See section 0 here, it applies to your monitor as well: https://forums.tomshardware.com/threads/how-to-connect-to-a-120-hz-display.3268285/

So a DP > DVI dual link active adapter for like 100-200£$ is my only option? what a waste of a 120hz monitor :/
