Does HDMI 1.4 work with 1440p 144Hz?

Straight answer, please 😀

Does HDMI 1.4 work on a 2560x1440 144Hz monitor? What about 3440x1440 144Hz (widescreen 1440p)?

Only HDMI 2.0 has the ability to carry 3840x1440 at any decent refresh rate, and so far that's only @ 60hz. I believe that HDMI 2.0 should be able to carry 1440p a@144hz. Does your GPU have a DisplayPort slot on it? If so I know for sure that DisplayPort 1.2 or higher does 1440p 144Hz.

If the display port is the one to the right of the HDMI then yes. What do I even connect through there anyway?

Wait... so HDMI 2.0 can handle 2560x1440 @ 144Hz?

Yup, that's a DisplayPort alright! that's the best option.
