![]() If you’re connecting a monitor to your laptop with DisplayPort, refer to this page to see a list of what DisplayPort versions are needed to support different resolutions and refresh rates. If you’re connecting a monitor to your laptop with HDMI, refer to this page to see a list of what HDMI versions are needed to support different resolutions and refresh rates. The caveat is that the way you’re connecting the laptop to the monitor must support the resolution and refresh rate of the monitor.įor example, HDMI 1.2 cannot run a 1440p monitor at 144Hz, however HDMI 2.0 and newer can do this just fine. The refresh rate of the laptop’s screen is not relevant, it does not matter. ![]() If you connect an external monitor to your laptop, the monitor can run at the maximum refresh rate that it supports. The answer is yes! You can play games on a monitor with higher resolution and refresh rate (Hz) compared to what the screen the laptop came with is capable of. A common question I get is “If I have a 60Hz laptop screen, can I use a faster monitor like 144Hz?”
