Question Can I render through one GPU and output through another

[kasol kay]

I have Benq 144Hz Monitor that only supports 144Hz through DVI and an RTX 2080 TI without a DVI port. My question is whether I can use an older GPU with a DVI port as a pass-through, also I've looked online and no DP to DVI adapters officially support 144Hz conversion. All opinions are appreciated since my only other alternative is buying a new Monitor I figured I might as well ask.

What is the exact monitor?

so can't use HDMI? it'd weird that 144hz only limited to older DVI port.

Actually there's a few monitors that have this issue. The ever popular Acer GN24 have this same setup.

Any way to my knowledge the only way to successfully do this is by using a quite expensive active adapter.

yeah because Turing no longer support DVI by default (unless AIB add their own support for their custom card). so the only way to use DVI is using active adapter which can be pricey.
