Dac and computer connections

Good afternoon. Looking at buying a Denafrips Terminator. I have read several articles where the person states they prefer the I2s /HDMI  connection, rather than USB.   My current DAC had no I2s/HDMI connect, so I use USB from DAC to Windows based laptop, sounds Great. I currently use a 20' 2.0 USB cable to my listening area.

If I were to get the Denafrips, could I use their I2s/HDMI connection from terminator to my laptop via a 20' HDMI cable, rather then the  USB? I'll have to look and see if there is an available HDMI port on my computer?   Thanks for the help before I pull the trigger. Robert TN  hope this all made some sense. Connection ally challenged.
