_________________________________________________
I would like to buy a display cable to connect between a laptop and a TV.
What I want:
- A complete cable.
- Male Displayport 1.2 - male HDMI 2.0.
- About 3 m / 10' long.
- 3840 x 2160 resolution.
- 60 Hz refresh rate.
- 4:4:4 chroma sampling.
What I don't want:
- An adapter that requires an additional cable.
- Mini or micro variants of the connectors.
Maybe it doesn't even exist, does anyone know?
-
Am I the only one who is looking for this?

I was thinking of this. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B007L5N1K...colid=1KHM9Q41F5AVT&coliid=IHTSD4RRSSU6&psc=1SL2 likes this. -
The one in your link has the wrong connector and too low resolution.
I thank you for trying though.

The one I linked is not the one I'm getting, I think it was in me search history not my cart. I'm getting one that supports 4K, although it's still mini DP to HDMI 1.4. I ASSumed it was for a Mini DP.

Good luck with your search.
EDIT: What about this one; It's only an adapter though: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0183FPYOA/ref=ox_sc_act_title_1?ie=UTF8&smid=A1683W8HSNOXQZ&th=1Last edited: Oct 5, 2016SL2 likes this. -
Both adapters max out at 30 Hz when using 4k, I don't think you want that. There are better adapters available, like this one.

Interesting, so if I'm planning on hooking my laptop to a 144 Hz I could have some issues? Looks like I have more homework to do, lol. Perhaps I need to go back look for some kind of display port switch if I want to use my monitor for both my laptop and desktop. Those were kind of pricey though.

It's a 144Hz 1440p with Gsync.

From what I gather, you won't have any issues connecting the display to your laptop, full resolution, 144 Hz and G-sync.

I thought that laptop is faster than your desktop? I mean, do you really use both?DukeCLR likes this. -
I do use both, I'm on the road 60%, of the time and I like my 27" 1440p monitor. This is the first time I have had a laptop that was more powerful then my desktop and I find in interesting to see how it would run my desktop setup and possibly hand down my desktop to my son and only have my laptop, I could add another HDD to my HTPC for backup and I would be all set.
