So since I'm changing my non-DVI RTX 2060 to gpu with DVI port because my monitor XL2411Z doesn't have DP port to run 144hz, it doesn't matter what cable or whatever it is since it's DVI?

 

Will all of these will work, and which is the best one for gaming?

 

Gainward GeForce RTX 2060 Phoenix

Pny Technologies Europe PNY GeForce RTX 2060 XLR8 OC

Palit Xpertvision PALIT GeForce RTX 2060 GamingPro OC

or add extra 30-35 euros for:

EVGA GeForce RTX 2060 XC ULTRA GAMING

ASUS Dual GeForce RTX 2060 OC

 

Thanks, just being sure I don't mess up since I have no experience with cables.

You'll need DVI Dual-Link, and only 1920x1080 or less 144hz.

I have a cable like this one, right now it's connected to my GTX 960 and it's working fine with 144hz (my GTX 960 has DVI-I dual link input, that doesn't matter, right?) Image result for dvi dual link

Yeah that's a DVI-D Dual Link Cable, it would work fine for 1080P 144hz (no more than 1080p)

That pin is shorter as per the DVI specification, so that it's the last to make contact.
