So I have an Acer GN246HL monitor and I am looking to buy another monitor, a curved one, to use as my main, and I plan on making this Acer my second monitor. From what I have read, although it can use HDMI, it cannot reach its 144Hz peak with it, only DVI can. However, I'm also getting a new GPU along with the new monitor (NVIDIA GeForce GTX 2060 Super) which does not have any DVI slots, only HDMI and DisplayPort.
My question is, and this is a long shot but I figured I'd ask, if I used a DVI to HDMI connector for this Acer monitor to connect to the GPU, would I get the 144Hz? Or would it just be recognized as HDMI by not only the GPU but also the monitor, limiting it back to 60Hz? Thank you.
