What do I need for target display mode?

I’m trying to connect one of my iMacs (I have two 20 inch 2008 iMacs, a 27 inch Late 2009 iMac, and a 27 inch 2019 iMac) and i’m trying to connect one of them to my gaming pc with a displayport connector for use as a display. Do I need a mini displayport to displayport cable?

The 27 inch Late 2009 iMac should work as a display.
