1440p with Intel 4600?

After some research and help from this forum (thanks guys :)) I decided to buy a 1440p monitor (probably the Dell U2515H). I will be running a dual monitor setup, 1440p and 1080p displays. Since I don't do any gaming, I was perfectly fine with my onboard graphics Intel 4600 so far.

My question is, will intel 4600 suport my 1440p and 1080p displays? My motherboard is a Gigabyte H81M-S2H that only has HDMI (v1.4a) and DVI. No DisplayPort. Can I use HDMI fo the 1440p 60Hz panel and DVI for 1080p with no trouble, or do I need to get a cheap dedicated GPU? If so, which GPU would you recommend?

 

Thanks

Should do, but just in case you might want to buy a fairly cheap used dedicated gpu.

I would get GPU, because the monitor advancement right now haven't stop yet and not really any side of slowing atm.

It will work, I think I'm running almost 2k off of HDMI alone, I'm not sure about DVI though, I don't see why it wouldn't.

Will any GPU with a DisplayPort work for me? What about something like HD7770?

I think this will work fine. Don't worry, and don't buy a GPU yet, only do so when you notice things lag, and see the iGPU is at 100%. :)

honestly, if you're not doing any gaming, you can run all you can plug into your motherboard off of intel integrated just fine.

I just bought the Benq GW2765HT and it works fine with my onboard intel 4600 at 1440p@60Hz over HDMI. I used DVI to connect my second monitor. Everything works well when using "normally" but when I try to play 1440p video at 60fps and also do something on the other monitor, it does stutter every now and then. It's not a huge deal, but I will definitely be looking to buy a dedicated GPU.

I found a fairly cheap used HD 7770 with two mini DisplayPorts. Will that be able to support a 1440p and 4k displays at 60Hz if I decide to upgrade my 1080p monitor to 4k? Remember, no gaming :)
