DVI and HDMI are the same. Display Port supports higher refresh rates
at the high resolutions.

You didn't mention which brand and model of monitor, or its native
resolution. If the monitor doesn't support higher resolutions and
refresh rates than what DVI/HDMI support then there is no point in
changing your video adapter to something the surpasses what your monitor
can support.

HDMI 1.4: 3820x2160 @ 30Hz
HDMI 2.0: Ups refresh to 60Hz
DVI single-link: 1920x1200 @ 144Hz
DVI dual-link: Ups resolution to 2560x1600
DP 1.2: 3820x2160, 4K, @ 60Hz, 1080p @ 144Hz
DP 1.4: Ups refresh to 4K @ 120Hz and 8K @ 60Hz

Interesting response. The monitor is:
