Operating System: Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)
Hi,
The 850 G5 has a FHD screen. According to specs, it could have a 4K screen. When I look for a 4K screen, they all come with 40 pins when the FHD has 30 pins. Do I need a special cable/ribbon to upgrade to 4K? It seems that there is only one display connector on the motherboard, so how do I do? The number of pins on the motherboard being the same, are they 2 kings of cable/ribbon, mb connector -> 30 pins for FHD, and mb connector (thus the same number of pins) -> 40 pins for 4K?
