I think you need an active usb c to dvi-d to get thisnto work. Unfortunately ive not come across this need before but i have looked into it and it would seem the only options to get the full resolution and refresh rate of dual link dvi is woth an active usb c to dual link dvi cable OR with a usb c to displayport cable then a display port to dual link dvi cable
If usb c is the source the above should help.
If dual link dvi is the source then you need to make sure that the usbc end supports display port alt mode. Otherwise it the same as above. Dvi to dp to usbc.
But this is all info i just read and may be wrong, and you also canr account for cheap converters lying about what they support.
Yeh I figured it needed to be active, couldn’t find any and the ones that claimed (and ultimately turned out to be lying) to be dual link weren’t active so unsurprising they didn’t work.
That’s a very interesting idea about the double conversion with displayport though, I never thought of that. Are the displayport to DVI dual link cables easier to get or are they unicorns as well?
