Hi,

OK, a DP to HDMI2.0 active adapter together with a high-speed HDMI-cable 
did the trick. Now I have 4K in 50Hz which is more than enough for my needs.

This is the adapter I got: 
https://www.club-3d.com/en/detail/2366/displayportt-1.2-to-hdmit-2.0-uhd-active-adapter/

Works perfectly.

Thanks for all your input.
