EVERY 4k dp to hdmi cable i found was 30 hrtz
i did find a nice 8k dp cable for 20$ that offers 8k at 60, 4k at 144, and 2k at 165 hrtz.
but nothing for hdmi.

It's getting close to Black Friday, you might as well replace your TV with a legit PC Monitor that has both HDMI and Display Port plugs. Unless you just bought this TV, I think I remember you saying that in another thread about 4k gaming.

Looking at xrandr you have dvi hdmi and 3 display ports so I'm guessing the card is powerful enough? One thing to remember is the card has a maximum GPS throughput so adding a second monitor on some cards means you can't drive 4k on the main one, unless you also have a vga port which is a separate bandwidth channel.
Also what is the TV rated at, does the spec actually say 4k at 60hz? some don't.

If you're having performance issues, refer to this MEGA thread that has some VERY solid tips and tweaks to really improve performance AND graphics quality
WTF Lewis?!?
I use a com. put. or
I’d blame my equipment if I got the same *** lag and FPS on PC NA that I get on PC EU.
PC NA - 60 FPS, limited lag, low population.
PC EU - 30 FPS max, lag, slap back, rubber banding, crashing, long load screens, high player population
So pretty certain that’s not down to the HDMI cable that I don’t use.
Please stop this ‘blame the players’ ***.

This isnt about blaming players. It's about looking at your equipment and being sure you are getting the best performance possible.

OK. so if i use the display port on my graphics card but i only have hdmi on my tv how would i then connect it? If i were to use an adapter, wouldnt that just negate the value of using the display port?
you can buy cables that do this, i have one for my main screen and use standard HDMI for my 2nd
NOW see i took your word for it and canceled my delivery for my hdmi 2.0 cables on your word that i should use a dp to hdmi cable but then couldnt find a dp to hdmi cable that was as capabale of the hdmi 2.0 cable that i had ordered
AND i now have to wait three days to reorder the hdmi cable i cancelled. Because there is no dp to hdmi cable on amazon that i could find that would be better suited for me than the hdmi cable i had selected that does 4k at 60 hrtz.
AND since i couldnt find a dp to hdmi cable capable of 60 hrtz on amazon, i have to wonder if your dp to hdmi cable is running your 4k at 30 hrtz and impacting your performance.
see that? And for how may other people is this also true? a factor?

And since i am sure i dont have a 2.0 hdmi cable capable of 18Gbps (well pretty sure and i have some on the way) and i know how bad things can be with poor quality ethernet cables that seem to go bad for no reason, it seems i have to ask.

You haven't said what's connected to the TV. Console then 30fps is normal for 4K.
GPU? Then tell us which one to get more information.
HDMI 1.4 only supports 4K 24/30fps, that includes the cable not only connections.
HDMI 2.0/a/b support 4K 60fps, HDR (a), object orient sound (b)
Give us more information what you want to do, with the type of hardware and we can give you a more informative solution.
