Yeah, a dp to hdmi or DVI d/I to hdmi will fix the issue.

Hello everyone,

 

I just bought an Asus VX279H (no DP). I want to buy another one later, but my GPU (a GTX 970) has only 1 HDMI port. I've read something about adapters, but do I need an adapter like this one: 

 

I hope you guys can understand it without the translation.
