A decade ago I used a HDMI to DVI adapter plugged into the monitor (a
case a bit larger than a DVI male connector having a HDMI slot). I
would check if DP to DVI or DP to HDMI converters exist and have no
compatibility issues (e.g. I have heard of bugs related to support of
USB-C to DP chips).
[...] It would only
display its native resolution of 2560x1600 via dual link DVI, just
connecting via HDMI to DVI cable got me a quarter resolution 1280x800
which was quite grainy on a 30" display. I found some converter boxes
existed. From memory I think you could go from DP to DL-DVI directly,
from HDMI you needed to convert to DP first. [...]
BTW, considering the resolution and monitor in question, 1600x900 is
single link DVI territory so easier conversion and cables.
