Even video only FHD but machine still has to generate massive information for a FULL 4K screen that why when you reduce its size to FHD it will play on a smaller screen.

Probably you connect your machine to the monitor using its HDMI 1.4 port. You have to get lower refresh rate to be able to use full 4K external monitor.
