[QUOTE="HarborFront, post: 896320, member: 55987"] Just tested my LG GRAM 17 laptop at the shop with a 5K monitor. The built-in Iris Graphic Plus card CANNOT support 5K resolution due to its limitation. Max is 4K@60Hz only You'll need dGPU which supports 5K to do that There goes my 49-in monitor dream. Either I get it and run at a lower resolution or I can get the 2x27-in 4K monitor option using a docking station EDIT Apparently, there's a testing error in the store by the salesman. A re-test was carried out by LG after I requested them to perform it. LG 49-in ultrawide monitor max resolution is 5120x1440@60fps = 7 372 800 pixels (same for DELL. ACER and SAMSUNG) Intel Iris Plus Graphics Card max support is 3840x2160@60fps = 8 294 400 pixels which means there's enough pixels for the Intel Iris Plus Graphics Card to cover the entire LG 49-in screen. Below is a screenshot done by LG If the 5K monitor has 5120x2880 resolution then the Intel Iris Plus card will not be able to support that resolution at least not on my LG GRAM 17 2020 Example my LG GRAM 17 2020's Intel Iris Plus Graphics card is NOT suitable for the LG 34'' UltraWide™ Monitor with HDR 600 (34'' Diagonal) whose max resolution is 5120 x 2160 This 5K resolution is a bit confusing for it can be 5120x1440 5120x2880 5120x3200 (max as defined by the Iris Plus Graphics spec as below for the Intel® Core™ i7-1065G7 in the below link) [URL unfurl="true"]https://ark.intel.com/content/www/us/en/ark/products/196597/intel-core-i7-1065g7-processor-8m-cache-up-to-3-90-ghz.html[/URL] I suspect LG limits the display resolution on the LG GRAM 17 2020 to 5120x1288 because the new MacBook Air using the same 11th Gen Iris Plus Graphics card as my LG GARM 17 2020 is able to display 5120x2880 resolution [URL unfurl="true"]https://www.apple.com/macbook-air/specs/[/URL] [ATTACH type="full" width="241px" alt="1595929116122.png"]244727[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
