There's always this option, could even include something like it in the box.

That's a passive cable and would require DP++. Funnily enough it would also require a HDMI 2.1 capable driver.

That probably won't work. It will get basic video and maybe audio through, but not features like VRR, which is why you'd care about HDMI 2.1 support at all
