So the only issue is either your video cable not being an 18gbps cable or your current CPU not supporting HDMI 2.0 output, or maybe both.
Since you want to get a discrete GPU anyway and both the GTX 1050/Ti support HDMI 2.0, you might as well get the GPU first and then just see if the HDMI cable you already own works for getting you 60Hz at 4k or not.
Ahh yeah, Intel integrated graphics has very hit-and-miss support of HDMI 2.0.
I just figured out the problem i think... The Intel Compute Stick STK1AW32SC that i'm using, only has a HDMI 1.4b port... I'm guessing that's the reason.
I guess it does not matter, but i am running the PC into my Sony HT-NT5 sound system, which then sends the signal to the PC via the HDMI ARC port, but that is a fairly high end soundbar that supports HDMI 2.0b on all the ports, so that should not be a problem.
And yeah, once i get the new PC, i'll know if the cable is a problem.
Once again im very thankful for all your help!
