I want to purchase a 3440x1440 external monitor and wish to know if it will work on my laptop. I am concerned as I tried to connect to a 2560x1440 external monitor as a test and the maximum possible resolution via Windows 10 display options was 2560x1080.
Please advise maximum resolution for my HP Pavilion X7P40AV with NVIDIA GTX 1050 (I think that is a BC200 - why does HP make it so hard to find the generic model name??).
I found a service manual for it and it seems to suggest that it has a HDMI v2.0 and can do up to 4096x2160. If so, what would remedy the above problem? Perhaps it was a lack of a proper driver?
