Hi all,

I have a query regarding buying this monitor: https://www.argos.co.uk/product/4704766?clickSR=slp:term:acer nitro monitor:1:24:1

The monitor says Display Port 1.2. I have a Lenovo Legion 5 15ACH6 and I was wondering if I would get
2560 x 1440 @ 165hz over DisplayPort to USB-C ?

Also, please recommend a DisplayPort to USB-C as I have no clue which one would be suitable for this.

Edit: Here's my laptop's product specifications: https://psref.lenovo.com/syspool/Te...F-BFAB92835B4F/Legion_5_15ACH6_82JW004DIN.pdf

Thank you!

Yes, DP 1.2 is capable of 1440p 165hz.

Your laptop seems very up to date, with HDMI 2.1 and DP 1.4 over Type-C on two ports.

I've had decent luck with Amazon Basics cables. But for 2K 165hz, just seek out one that makes that claim. There are plenty out there. Not terribly expensive either, so you can pick up a few if needed.
