Nvidia 1050 HDMI resolution support?

AndersT2 · July 29, 2018

I'm looking at buying a new monitor, and the upcoming 34WK95U from LG looks tempting. BUT it only has 1 displayport input, which I need to use for my gaming PC.

For my daily driver I have a Nvidia 1050 graphics card, and since I have to use a HDMI for connecting it, and the specs I have found for the 1050, it only supports up to 4096x2150 @60Hz. (Found on Gigabytes site).

I haven't found the resolution support on Nvidias site, exept for the max resolution, which isn't helpful.

Do anyone know the full supported resolution on differents HZ that the 1050 can use? Of if Nvidia has updated the max HDMI resolution in later driver updates? (I had a laptop with AMD graphics, and specs only said it could support x amount of resolution, but a later driver update let me use it with a higher resolution (2560x1080), I think the specs for the graphics only said 1920x1080, and yes it did run on full resolution))

I could be fine with 30Hz and full resolution support, but would like full 60Hz. The AOC monitor I run today only support 30Hz over HDMI with 3440x1440, and it has been ok for the last few years.

Or do anybody know of a way to use Displayport signals into a Thunderbolt 3 port? (Which the monitor also has).

I have also been looking at Acer Z35P or BenQs alternative to it, which is half the price of the LG, but Acer don't have HDR, and BenQ don't have true HDR, but the monitor would be easier to run with games, and do like the 3440x1440 resolution.

not sure if its correct but i think its just a downsampling features...
