You will be able to obtain 2560 x 1440 resolution from an Intel HD 4000 on-chip graphics and a HDMI port, but I very much doubt you'll get a 60Hz refresh rate via HDMI. Lemme know cause I really want to get that monitor too haha. I was wondering if what they did could work with you PB278Q or crapme's external dell monitor.Īnyways if the your Samsung series 9 outputs at hdmi ver 1.3 or 1.4 and is category 2 at 340MHz it should be able to output 2560v1440 at 60hz to that monitor cause it should have enough bandwidth for it. Besides doing a custom resolution at 2560x1440 they also had to:ģ) and lower their refresh rates if it didin't work at 60HzĪll this through either through the Nvidia Control panel or Intel Media and Graphics Control Panel. I came across this forum at Īnd it looks like they found a solution. But seeing as I don't have display port or dvi-D on my laptop I looked for a solution. I have heard hdmi only allows up to 1080p for wqhd monitors. But before I do I wanted to know if it'll work as well. I just bought a sony vaio S 15.5 and am planning to buy that monitor in the future.

Max.Hey Philipp, I would also like to know if it's possible to operate the PB278Q via HDMI at 2560x1440, 60Hz.
