Latitude E5570 with external QHD monitor possible?
Hi,
I have a Latitude E5570 and a 27" external monitor with QHD (2560x1440) resolution. It's a Dell U2713HM.
When I connect it using the HDMI connector (as the laptop doesn't have DisplayPort built-in) the maximum resolution I can select is 1920x1080, which looks horrible since it's upscaled to 2560x1440. Is there a way to use the full resolution of the monitor with this laptop?
It may be the Intel HD Graphics 530 adapter that is limited to this resolution, but I don't find a way to use the AMD Radeon R7 M370 (which this laptop also has) instead.
I know there is a docking station that adds DisplayPort support, but will that actually help or does it just adapt the HDMI output to DisplayPort?
Thanks
Herman

Apparently, the E5570 doesn't support that resolution. We just went through trying to get an E5570 to work with a U2913 (2560x1080) only to come to this conclusion. Our older E6530 laptop works fine with the monitor.
The new E5570 is the problem.

Today I got the Dell E5570 laptop working with a 27" 2560x1440 monitor at the correct resolution using a HDMI cable I found in the office. Googling the issue, it looks like all HDMI cables are not made equal, so ensure its a "High Speed HDMI Cable".
