Hey all,
I've got a Dell G5 15 Gaming (5500) laptop and I also have a 40" Philips BDM4065UC. I would like to hang the monitor in my room and connect my laptop to it, to watch movies from bed. The monitor supports 4K60hz but only if you use a 1.2 DisplayPort or better (no HDMI can support 4K60hz). The issue is, my laptop has only HDMI, USB-A and USB-C ports. Is there any type of cable I can use to hook up my monitor to my laptop without sacrificing the 60hz? The cable also has to be long, 10-12 meters.
