4K@60hz But MOBO only has HDMI 1.4 and VGA ports

Hello,

I just built my first vanilla Hackintosh with Big Sur with everything working - except 4K@60Hz.

So my main problem is that i can't think of a solution to it, because my dGPU is nVidia GTX 1050 TI (which is not supported) and my Hackintosh is running on Intel UHD 630 with HDMI 1.4 and VGA ports.

HDMI 1.4 nor VGA can output 4K 60Hz, HDMI can only output 4K@30 and i'm not even going to mention VGA.

So is there a solution like dGPU port routing, so i can use dGPU ports with Intel iGPU?

or

Can i compress the signal to output 4K 60 like nvidia did back in 2014?

or

Can i use both of them, like Nvidia handling the displays and igpu handling the acceleration?

I'm sorry if this was asked before, but it didn't cross my radar.

Is there another solution to it?

Right now i'm using it in 1440@60 mode but it kinda looks crappy on 28 inch screen.

My specs are:

Dual Boot Windows 11 & Open Core Big Sur

Intel core i5 9400

8GB RAM

Gigabyte H310M M.2 2.0

Nvidia GEFORCE GTX 1050 TI 4G OCV1 MSI Single Fan [ HDMI ] [ DP ] [ DVI ]

NVME 128GB for the mac OS partition

I really like Big Sur so i don't want to downgrade to the older versions that support nvidia and i don't have money right now to buy another GPU. This setup wasn't made with hackintosh in mind but its nice having it.
