Looking for display with multiple DisplayPort inputs

My needs are simple (or so I thought) but cannot seem to find anything that matches my requirements for a monitor.

  1. 2560x1440 max resolution give or take
  2. G-Sync
  3. IPS
  4. 144Hz
  5. At least two DP or MDP inputs. Any combination of the two would work (1x DP with 1x MDP, or 2x MDP, etc).

The last requirement is the kicker. I have not been able to find anything with more than just one DP/MDP. Everything comes with just one DP and HDMI. I don't really care about HDMI. The closest one was the ASUS MG279Q but it's FreeSync.

 

Why do I need the last requirement? So I can use both my Mac Mini (late 2012) and my gaming PC on one monitor. Mac Mini cannot display at 2560x1440 resolution unless it's on MDP.

Could anyone help me out?

I tried it with a MDP to HDMI cable from the Mac Mini but it won't go beyond 1080p. Next, I tried it with a MDP to DP cable from the Mac Mini and that worked. But my monitor only has one DP and one HDMI. That's why I need a monitor with two DP inputs so I can have 2560x1440@60Hz from the Mac Mini with 2560x1440@144Hz + G-Sync from my gaming PC.
