I was hoping to update on results today as I received the adapter and I thought I already had the DP cable to use with it but I totally forgot that my exiting DP cable which I frequently use to plug in my laptop with has a mini-DP plug at the laptop end, whereas desktop DP ports are full size. So I am getting the right DP cable tomorrow and will test it in the evening. I’ll post my result either tomorrow (Friday) or Saturday.

OK, I received the cable. Plugged into the HDMI to DP adapter.
Success, I now have 1440p 60hz mode back.

So in summary, it was all down to not realising my new motherboard’s DVI port was only capable of up to 1920 X 1200 mode. DVI ports need to be a dual link to achieve a higher resolution which my previous dedicated GPU had. But this mainboard does have a HDMI 3.2 port and so with a HDMI to DP adapter and DP cable, all is well. So this might be a useful case for future troubleshooting in future if similar cases arise for you guys.
Best wishes.Comment

Thanks for posting the reultComment

Pleasure to contribute my problem case guys, and thanks for a couple of utilities I didn’t know about. I like Speccy, I was using Belarc prior but Speccy shows temperatures too, and a more readable structure, I like that! Also the Driver uninstall resource looks to be a useful tool to use for future internal component changes.
I can also see a nice useful resource section on this forum which I look forward to exploring.
Take care for now!Comment
