Does your monitor handle DisplayPort++
If it does, you're going to be fine, buy a passive HDMI > DisplayPort cable, these are relatively cheap.
If it does not, uh-oh... you want to investigate active cables and these will vary in quality and all I can say is don't go cheap on this as you'll just have to buy multiple cables until you find one that works.
HDMI > DisplayPort is a minefield because "it depends", and what it depends on is your monitor.

I want a HDMI (computer) to Displayport (monitor) cable. A bit of a look on Amazon seems to have all of the cables either being uni-directional (in the wrong direction) or bi-directional and expensive.
Can anyone point me in the direction of a HDMI to Displayport cable for under a tenner. I want it to occasionally do PiP on my monitor so guess only really need 1080P@60Hz.
