Depends on the port you're connecting from on your laptop. Is it HDMI/DP that supports 144Hz at that res? On both sides?

Will an hdmi cable work for this thing?

The monitor should support it, because it has HDMI 1.4

Do you have a specific product number for the laptop? The product number should be on the back of the machine and should look something like this: "15-cd015nd" or similar

yes this is the product number:

15-cx0002nx

Your laptop and the monitor both have HDMI 1.4, which means in theory they should both be able to run the display at 144Hz.

I can't guarantee anything though; I have often seen monitors or laptops not adhere to these standard numbers.

Hello, I'm thinking of doing the same thing. I wanted to know if it worked for you?
