Windows 10: Does my my laptop (VN7-791G-78Y8) support 2560 x 1440 at 60hz?

Hello,

I posted this at Acer community, but didn't receive much help so I thought I'd post here as well, hopefully I posted in the right category. Anyway, I have been looking to buy a 4k monitor for my laptop, however, I soon found out that it doesn't support 4k at 60hz, only at 30hz since my HDMI port is probably 1.4. I found that out when browsing for similar posts. I looked at the specifications and found out that my VN7-791G-78Y8 has a i7-4720HQ (Intel HD Graphics 4600) which supports a Max Resolution (HDMI 1.4) up to [email protected] (this is the information I got from the Intel website). Full specs of my laptop is here. So 4k monitor is no longer an option. The next best alternative would be a 2k monitor (2560 x 1440). However, I couldn't find a full list of supported resolutions by Intel HD Graphics 4600.

So my question is: can my laptop (VN7-791G-78Y8) display 2560 x 1440 at 60hz (or perhaps even higher resolution at 60hz)?

Also, is there a list of all supported resolutions by my graphics card somewhere? Since going to display adapter properties on Windows 10 and looking at "List All Modes" only shows a list of valid modes for current laptop's monitor.

Any help is appreciated.

UHD Resolution for external monitor.....(2560 x 1440)

I have a Samsung Laptop (550P7C) the in-built Graphics Card (Intel HD Graphics 4000: Driver version, 10.18.10.5059) will not "offer" me higher resolution than 1920 x 1080.

The laptop is capable of supporting 3840 x 2160 (I require: 2560 x 1440)

I have been told by Samsung that this is a "Default Setting" and cannot me upgraded...

I have just purchased a ViewSonic 32" UHD Monitor, (I am a Graphic Designer) specifically for my work, and wonder if your software will operate on my laptop, bearing in mind the default firmware is set as
1920 x 1080.....?

Please advise. Phil
