I have a 1440p 144hz monitor and need it as an extendet screen for my laptop. My laptop has HDMI 1.4, but I only get 60 Hz! How can I run the monitor over 144hz? Are there any adapters that you can recommend to me?

Sa

If you don't have DisplayPort, Thunderbolt, or USB-C with DP, 60Hz is the maximum

Thank you for your answer, I have 2 USB-C ports on my laptop. Is it possible to achieve 144hz on 1440p with them. Would there be a cable or an adapter, or how should I best do that?

Sa

USB-C with DisplayPort?

Jo

How do you mean?

Sa

Can the USB-C DisplayPort transmit signals?

Unfortunately, I can't see such a lettering anywhere on my Lenovo L13 Yoga.

Sa

Ok, the L13 can use DisplayPort via USB-C

That means that I can buy a USB-C to dp adapter and use it to operate my monitor at 244hz 1440p? Do I have to pay attention to anything when buying the cable?

Sa

Yes

Jo

Where do you know that from, if I may ask?

Sa

That it has DisplayPort over USB-C? Is given here, for example
