I have a new laptop Full HD with an HDMI connection and an older 30-inch HP LP3065 monitor, which only has 3x DVI connections. I now want to extend the image from the laptop to the monitor. Unfortunately, the resolution is not exactly high on the extended monitor. There are 5 different DVI cables, I have chosen the best one, HDMI to DVI-D (24+1) connector Dual Link.
HP ENVY Laptop 17-cg1997nz (17.3", Intel Core i7, 32 GB RAM, 1 TB SSD):
- Graphics card model = Intel Iris Xe Graphics.
- Dedicated graphics card = No
HP LP3065 30-inch widescreen LCD monitor
1. display settings
2. screen resolution
3. 1920 x 1080 (recommended)
This is how the resolution is set on the laptop, it doesn't go any higher. Is there anywhere else I can change the resolution?
Can anyone help me? Many thanks in advance.
Kind regards

HDMI to DVI with this resolution does not work without an active converter. The adapter cables are all passive single-link cables, regardless of whether they have 24+1 pins or not, because they only transmit the HDMI signal to 1 link - so 1920x1080 is the highest resolution you can get with 60Hz. If you lower it to 30Hz (if necessary with CRU), it should work with 2560x1600.
Since your notebook has USB-C with DP/Alt mode, I would try this:
Delock USB-C to DVI-D (1m, USB C, DVI) - this converts the signal directly, thanks to USB-C power supply, nicely compact in 1 cable.
