Hello,

Before byuing a 4k monitor for my laptop, I would like to get sure my integrated graphics can handle the task.

My laptop:

  • HP Probook 650 G1 with Intel HD Graphics 4600.
  • Docking station with DisplayPort, DVI-D (dual) and VGA.

Desired setup for external monitors:

  • 32" monitor with a resolution of 3840 x 2160 via DisplayPort
  • 24" monitor with a resolution of 1920 x 1200 via DVI-D (dual)

Would the Intel HD Graphics 4600 be able to handle this?

Hi urdahl,

 

 

Our graphics HD 4600 supports the resolutions below:

 

DisplayPort* 1.2 eDP*:

 

H-Processors: 3840 x 2160 @ 60 Hz (Ultra-HD)

 

U-Processors: 3200 x 2000 @ 60 Hz, 3840 x 2160 @ 30 Hz

 

Y-Processors: 2560 x 1600 @ 60 Hz

 

 

HDMI*: 4096 x 2304, 3840 x 2160 @ 24 Hz / 24bpp

 

DVI: 1920 x 1200 @ 60 Hz

 

 

So, 4K is supported by Display Port (no adapters connected). In the case of your laptop, I found the maximum resolutions supported by the display are.

 

15.6" diagonal LED-backlit HD8 anti-glare (1366 x 768)

 

15.6"diagonal LED-backlit FHD SVA anti-glare (1920 x 1080)

 

 

Laptop manufacturers customize our drivers, so the maximum resolution of the external video can be affected plus the docking station might decrease the video resolution.

 

 

I suggest you to contact Hewlett Packard and request the resolutions supported by the external video port.
