so i want a new monitor which i would use with 3 computers: my personal laptop, my work laptop, and my old desktop (which i want to replace at some point)
the one i'm considering has 1x hdmi and 1x displayport, the laptops would use hdmi as they only support dp over usbc and i want to keep those ports free
ideally this would mean the desktop stays connected to the other port but it doesn't HAVE dp so i'm now considering buying a new graphics card for a machine i'm trying to retire 
@lion arent there hdmi to dp adapters
@RavenWorks @miunau as far as i can tell that's only possible in the other direction, DP output to HDMI input
@lion @miunau passive conversion *does* exist, if the thing outputting the signal supports it; do you know if yours does? https://www.dell.com/support/kbdoc/en-ca/000125170/hdmi-to-displayport-dp-conversion-information
