the oculus rift CV1 used hdmi, the RiftS is DP (and iirc the DK2 was DVI but i could be wrong, that was a looooong time ago)

i cant remember what i did with mine I *think* i used the hdmi for my rift and then used a DP-hdmi adapter for my tv (monitor) the other way round did not work so will, due to my long extension leads.

so either way you need a DP to hdmi adapter https://www.amazon.co.uk/Displayport-WARRKY-Gold-Plated-Connector-Compatible/dp/B081GMCNNF/

try it with your rift (note this is only for CV1) and failing that use it for your monitor.

PS they usually only say 4k/30 on them but i think they usually manage 4k/60

Just get a display port to hdmi adapter and use it for your monitor. And then use the HDMI port for your Oculus Rift,

I can't I need HDMI 2.1 as I have the computer going to a LG Oled 48" for a monitor and need it for 4k @ 120Hz

will check out the adapters

Ah!! Well, hopefully a Display Port adapter will work for you. The Rift was a bit fussy about display port adapters that's why most people used them for their monitors and kept the HDMI port on the GPU for the Rift itself.
