So i got asus rog pg27aq monitor (4k, 60hz), ibought an hdmi cable for it(2.0b) whne i connect it up with hdmi it can only go up to 4k at 24hz, although it says on the packaging that it supports 4k at 60hz, i got a gtx1080, displayports are taken by my other two monitors. Am i doing something wrong or is the cable bad, it doesnt write anywhere that it is for monitor, but i dont think that should be an issue, it says uhd, for tv, beamer, amplifier....

And for pg279q?

You need a display port cable to run at 4k 60 hz. If your other monitors are 1080p then give them the dmi and take a dp port for the pg348q. Send the name of the other monitors.
