Hi all.
I tried to attach a 1080p notebook to a 4k monitor, but I can only output 1080p.
If I get a minimal 1080p notebook with Thunderbolt 3/USB4, can I get 4k later using an external GPU with a docking station and an external 4k monitor?
I can save a lot by getting a 1080p notebook rather than a 4k notebook. I also don't need 4k while traveling and 4k on a tiny 14" screen won't improve it much.
For the other specs like how much RAM is needed, CPU power, SSD size, etc I already know what I need.
I think it will work, but I don't want to spend a lot just to test.
Thanks!
