I'm troubleshooting an issue where my new 4K monitor only displays at 30Hz (at the 4K resolution), and hence has terrible lag; I've been told to make sure my graphics card can support the 4K resolution, but here's where I'm getting confused: I bought this relatively advanced ASUS laptop whose specs say "Graphics Coprocessor: Nvidia GTX 960M 2G". And in the Device Manager for Display Adapters, I see 2 entries: (1) Intel HD Graphics 530 and (2) GeForce GTX 960M.
BUT in the W10 Diagnostics tool (and in the W10 Display Properties settings), it seems to be telling me that the graphics for the monitor are being run through the HD Graphics 530 adapter(?). Or am I misunderstanding how this works. I just want to be sure that:
(a) my laptop shipped with the graphics card the specs said it had (On previous laptops, the "Adapter Type" field would display my Graphics Card, but this one just says "Intel HD Graphics 530", which is just the crappy integrated base version, right?); and
(b) that the graphics card is properly configured(?)...
