Is Mini DisplayPort compatible with the Oculus Rift?

Good morning and a Merry Christmas! Today, I received an Oculus Rift as a gift. My computer is compatible with it, but it does not have an HDMI port. I used a Mini DisplayPort to HDMI adapter:

During setup, the software read that the Rift's HDMI was not plugged in. Is miniDisplayPort not compatible with the Oculus Rift?


Apparently this adapter should work. ( Needs to be 4k ) https://www.amazon.com/Cable-Matters-DisplayPort-Thunderbolt-Compatible/dp/B00K0UDJFI/
