Windows 7 at 3840x2160 (4k)

Hey, everyone.  First let me say that I DONT GAME  and therefore nothing I talk about involves anything about games. I currently own the Asus Maximus VI Hero Motherboard with an HDMI output. I will soon be buying a 4k monitor. Probably the Asus PB287Q. When I get that monitor, how do I display Windows 7 in 4k? Will Windows automatically go 4k when I boot or do I have to change something to make it happen?


Thanks for the help.

Maximums - Asus Z97-K /w i5 4690 Bclk @106.9Mhz * x39 = 4.17Ghz, 8GB of 2600Mhz DDR3,.. Gigabyte GTX970 G1-Gaming @ 1550Mhz

Do you not have a gpu to plug the monitor into as just using a HDMI port will mean that it's only 30 fps you would want to use display port.

An AMD cpu has no place in a solely gaming build, end of.

I3 4150, Intel HD graphics, corsair CX750M, 4gb ram, Asus H81M-E, corsair 230T, Intel stock cooler WD Green 2TB Gigabyte 550TI

Why you shouldn't trust Gpu or Cpu boss Click on this I dare you!

It will automatically set itself to 4k, there shouldn't be any issues but if you want to check then go to :

control panel > appearance and personalisation > adjust screen resolution

It does.

 

Either way it is supposed to do it automagically anyway.

My PC: i7 3770k @ 4.4 Ghz || Hyper 212 Evo || Intel Extreme Motherboard DZ77GA || EVGA Hybrid 980ti || Corsair Vengeance Blue 16GB || Samsung 840 Evo 120 GB || WD Black 1TB

 

Peripherals: Corsair K70 RGB || Sentey Pro Revolution Gaming Mouse || Beyerdynamic DT 990 Premium 250 Ohm Headphone || Benq XL2420Z Monitor

Your MB has onboard DisplayPort, the monitor will come with a DP cable, don't use HDMI
