Windows 10: Can anyone recommend external monitor for laptop with 1660 TI (Lenovo,

Can anyone recommend external monitor for laptop with 1660 TI (Lenovo, Ryzen)?

Looking for 24 inch at minimum. Max 27 inch.

I will not be gaming but watching videos, using Microsoft Office, Teamviewer, Zoom and the like.

Might edit a few movies but only for personal use.

Not a photographer or programmer.

Might lightly touch up some photos.

1920 x 1080 is the resolution of the laptop. Should I future proof a bit and go 2k for external monitor?

Is this a waste since prob next laptop would be 4k anyway 4 years from now?

2. Should the external monitor be a 144 hz panel to match the HDMI output (assuming it is also 144hz) or just get a different lower hz?

3. IPS panel perhaps?

Recommendations and links appreciated.

Thanks,

Peter

Laptop suddenly stopped recognizing the external monitor

Hi,

Thank you for posting your query in Microsoft Community.

To assist you better, I would like to ask if the laptop is unable to recognize only the external monitor or other external devices also.

I suggest you to run the Hardware and Devices troubleshooter by following the steps below:

• Click on the Start button, and type “Troubleshooting” on the search bar.
• Click on “Hardware and Devices”.
• A pop-up will appear, click on the “Next” button and your hardware troubleshooting will start.
  

Hope the information is helpful. Keep us posted on the status for further assistance.

 

usb monitors using graphics card

Hi isaac177,

Thank you for writing to Microsoft Community Forums.

1. May I know the model number of AOC display monitor?
2. Is this the first time that you are trying to setup the display using HDMI?

You can try to use an adaptor (USB/HDMI or VGA as the card has 3 slots) to connect to monitor. I would also suggest you to get in touch with Nvidia to know more about this as there can be output issues while using adaptors and your Graphic card (GTX
1660 Ti) might not work as expected.

I suggest you to refer this
NVidia support link, and check if that helps.


Regards,

 

Surface Laptop 3 with external monitor

Hi All,

Has anyone come across an issue with an external monitor blacking out while connected to a Surface Laptop 3? I have the laptop connected to a widescreen laptop with the Surface Dock. Both work fine however, once every hour or so the external monitor blacks out and comes back.

I've completed the following:

• Updated laptop drivers and firmware
  • Updated monitor drivers
  • Swapped out monitor
