I currently have a mid-grade to high-grade consumer custom built computer, and I was wondering, can it handle 2K? and if yes, then 4K?
Specs:
(bought seconds before coffee lake existed) Core i7 7700K
GTX 1050 Ti WINDFORCE OC 4G
Z270 GAMING M6 AC Motherboard
150 GB SSD (Win OS)
1 TB Seagate HDD (cause reasons)
Two 21.5 Inch 1080p HP monitor(s)

I was wondering if my graphics card can support video at 2K, with some decent room for medium settings on CS:GO and stuff like that. And if its possible, see if my graphics card can handle 4K, if thats possible.
My specs on my graphics card say that maximum resolution (excluding how laggy the computer will be) "7680 x 4320" which is beyond 4K. I am assuming that this number just says how big the picture can get, before factors like the memory or the chip on the PCB start to stress.

 

My graphics card performs well on most games, and utilization doesn't get very close to maxing out the chip.

Back to the question, will this graphics card support 2K just fine?
Will it not burn out when that 2K monitor adds on to my collection of 2 1080P monitors?
Im looking forward to your answers.
