Anyone recommend a cable that will provide up to 170hz on a 2560x1440 Asus ROG monitor?
I had bought the below, but the plug is too long and does not fit into the displayport plug in the back of the monitor:

I have this monitor:

    Thanks guys!
    The cable the monitor came with is awesome with the little ROG logo, but was too short for my setup.
    I'm going to grab the 12 ft one.
