Problems with native resolution on RX480

Hi there. I had been using a LG 34um58-P monitor on a GTX 960 with a hdmi-dvi cable with no problems at all. Today I bought an RX480 and for whatever reason, I cannot select the native resolution, 1920x1080 is the max. Cable is the same, it's a dual link DVI-D on one end, and hdmi on the other.
I've tried to uninstall/reinstall monitor and vga drivers, but it's still acting up.
Googling it up hasn't really given me any help either. Save me please from throwing money at more cables and having to recable my wall mount and desk again

Anyways... to OP. @rev_ Have you tried downloading the latest graphics drivers from AMD?

I tried it even without the drivers, still limited to 1920x1080.

Have you used drivers you got online? Did you use automatic updating in Windows? Did you use a provided disk?

I'm saying you probably need to update your graphics card drivers. And have you completely uninstalled the old Nvidia drivers?

You NEED the drivers for it to work at non-standard resolutions. Try an HDMI to HDMI cable.

Ok, so first I uninstalled the nvidia drivers with driver sweeper, then I downloaded the latest amd drivers from the website. I even reinstalled them several times, still no effect.

Just tried with a rogue hdmi cable, and it works. But since the one and only HDMI output of my card is taken by my TV, that's going to be a no-go.

I'm sure it will work with a hdmi-displayport cable, but since it worked with this exact hdmi-dvi cable moments ago I was sure it's not the cables fault.

Plus recabling all the stuff and running around for fairly expensive cables is a pain in the ass.

My bad, link removed. That cable only supports 1920x1080

Yeah, I wish I was in the States, but here in Hungary they rob you when it comes to cables, or shipping. But I guess I have no other choice.

Rip... maybe an adapter would be cheaper?

Roughly the same price. Plus all those chinese crap, doesn't give me too much confidence whether it will work or not.

I was really hoping to save myself from cutting all those zip ties and integrating the new cable into the system, sigh.
