LGA 1150 Motherboard that supports DVI 2560x1600?

I'm building a new PC which is for non-gaming, but I do a lot of photo editing. I have an existing HP 30" Monitor with a really wide color gamut that I love, but being 5 years old, it only has DVI input (need dual-link DVI input).

For my new PC, I've been looking to built the PC around an LGA 1150 (haswell) Mini-ITX motherboard, but can't find a single motherboard that supports 2560x1600 resolution out of dual link DVI. I then looked at Micro-ATX boards and same situation.

All the motherboards I am looking at have HDMI and/or displayport that support 2560x1600, but that doesn't help me since my monitor only accepts DVI. I wanted to build a smaller PC and not have to resort to a dedicated video card just for dual link DVI. My other alternative is to buy a newer monitor that that seems foolish given this monitor works fine.

Does anyone know of a LGA 1150 Hagwell motherboard in Mini-ITX (ideally) or micro-ATX format that support dual-link DVI that will drive 2560x1600 resolution?
 
I don't know of any LGA-1150 ITX boards that have dual-link DVI, and not for want of looking for one.

You can of course salvage the situation by using a DisplayPort-to-dual-link-DVI adaptor, but those are pretty expensive. But still cheaper then a new monitor.

The funny thing is that pretty much all AMD FM1/FM2(+) boards have dual-link DVI support... 😕
