At 15.6 inch you probably wouldn't notice if the screen were interpolating badly. I think it will be fine.

while I don't have a 4k laptop, I have a 4k monitor, and I will say that 1080p should be fine on that small of a screen, as on my 28" when I run it at 1440p for my parents it still looks pretty crisp. Plus most screens these days are pretty good at figuring out that one 1080 pixel is 4 4k pixels.

My Build:


i7 5820k ~ Sabertooth X99 ~ 32GB Crucial Sport ~ Nvidia Titan X ~ Enthoo Luxe ~ 512GB 850 Pro ~ Asus PB287Q
