Question Affordable vertical monitor with multiple inputs recommendation?

Hello, I was looking into getting an affordable monitor that can be rotated vertically to be used as my second monitor. I'm looking at the Dell P2017H because it has HDMI + DisplayPort + USB and can be rotated vertically and is only around $100. Are there other monitors I should be looking...

Case that can hold and charge multiple devices?

Sort of in the sense that it can charge multiple devices but that’s not a carrying case.

Case that can hold and charge multiple devices?

I’m not sure if this exists or my googling skills aren’t that good. What I’m looking for is some sort of carrying case that can hold an iPad, a phone, and maybe something else. Additionally it would have a few USB ports to connect those things and then I can plug the whole case into the wall...

HDMI to DVI?

Ya I saw that too but it seems prohibitively expensive. HDMI 2.0 --> long cable --> female to female HDMI adapter --> Startech HDMI to DisplayPort --> DisplayPort to DVI. My amazon magic has this run out to $70ish. I might be better off selling my monitor and buying one that supports HDMI.

HDMI to DVI?

What about an active converter? Do those exist? I was also looking at possibly getting a new monitor anyway, however, most are DisplayPort monitors but I don't seem to see a lot of long DisplayPort cables whereas HDMI cables are more common

HDMI to DVI?

You need HDMI 2 for anything above 75-80Hz~ at 1440p.

HDMI to DVI?

I've been looking up new 1440p monitors to buy and I'm enticed by some of the gsync offerings however I don't see a lot of them that support HDMI 2.0. I do see 4K ones. Did HDMI 2.0 just skip the 1440p generation?

HDMI to DVI?

980 GTX + HDMI 2.0. This post seems to suggest this monitor just straight up doesn't support HDMI: http://www.overclock.net/t/1384767/official-the-qnix-x-star-1440p-monitor-club/25460#post_25691738 So it seems like I can't just use a passive HDMI to DVI cable. I need something that can...

HDMI to DVI?

I tried to take the distance out of the equation and I still am seeing artifacts. It seems like this QNIX monitor only wants a DVI input and trying to do anything else just messes it up. The DisplayPort adapter seems to help but only over small distances/low refresh rates.

HDMI to DVI?

Ok the plot thickens. With my original HDMI cable I can get perfect signal at 24Hz. At 60Hz, I can't. As I lower the refresh rate the signal gets better.

HDMI to DVI?

Ok so I went to Frys and bought several things to try out. I tried different adapters to no avail. I did buy a 50ft HDMI cable that came with a signal booster. It also didn't work at all without the DisplayPort to HDMI adapter. With the DisplayPort to HDMI adapter, at first it looked way...

HDMI to DVI?

Ok so if I go to the store today I'll look for a hdmi booster and an adapter. I think I bought the right kind of adapter though (Fullink Gold-Plated DVI-D Dual Link Male to HDMI to Female Adapter - 4K Resolution Ready https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00MCSMVYG/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_esWSyb90G6WCC) I'm...

HDMI to DVI?

The GPU is a 980 GTX Ti and has an HDMI port, two DVI ports, and 3 DisplayPorts. The HDMI cable is this one (https://www.amazon.com/219312-Cable-Category-1080P-Capable/dp/B01BY04QK4?th=1). It's 50ft long. Why is it that the cable works fine when going from my PC to the TV but going from my PC...
