Hi guys. I have Aspire A315-23 which is A315-23-R0U2 ( NX.HVTEY.00B ). What is my laptop's HDMI versiyon? Because I can't run my screen on 144 Hz refresh rate. I bought this new screen. https://www.amazon.com/ViewSonic-VX3418-2KPC-Inch-UltraWide-Adaptive-Sync/dp/B08ZT31QCN/ref%3Dsr_1_1?crid=EI0C3MBWLX95&keywords=VX3418&qid=1678662140&sprefix=vx3418%2Caps%2C454&sr=8-1

Please help me, thanks.

    That was from another Aspire 3 A315-23 spec, as you didn’t tell me the exact Aspire 3 A315-23-R0U2 model that you have, I gave you the info that I had,

    The Aspire 3 A315-23-R0U2 with the Ryzen 5 3500U cpu with its integrated Vega 8 graphics should be able to do a max of with 1920x1080p @ 120Hz but with 1920x1080 @ 144Hz the limiting factor is the HDMI 1.4b port the Aspire 3 A315-23 laptop, you can use the “ViewSonic OMNI VX3418-2KPC 34 Inch Ultrawide Curved 1440p” monitor as it will run on the laptops HDMI 1.4b at 120Hz refresher rate with some monitors, but it looks like your ViewSonic will either run 144Hz or if it cant then it will only run 60Hz and not 120Hz . The Aspire 3 A315-23-R0U2 is a 2019 laptop so its getting old which you have to consider that too.

    The A315-23 has the following graphics specs:

    1. Graphics - AMD Ryzen 3 cpu interbrated vega 3 graphics controller
    2. HDMI - Version 1.4b 4096x2160@30Hz Max,
    3. EDP - Version 1.4 2560x1600@60Hz Max

    The Vega 3 is very close to Intel's UHD Graphics 620 as far as performance and capabilities go. The graphics adapter supports UHD 2160p monitors at 60 fps, and it can HW-decode VP9, AVC, HEVC, MPEG-2 and other popular video codecs. The latest AV1 codec is not supported, though. Such a video will have to be decoded via software, with the limited CPU horsepower imposing a hard limit on the resolution that can be played back without stuttering. The Vega will allow for a bit of light gaming; F1 2021 runs well at 720p / Low, to give you an example. Quality RAM will allow for higher frame rates and the opposite is true as well; please keep in mind that Vega 3 has no VRAM of its own.

    Hi. Firstly thanks for your answer. But what you said is wrong. Because my computer has these specs: Ryzen 5 3500U and Radeon™ Vega 8 here is the link: https://www.acer.com/tr-tr/laptops/aspire/pdp/NX.HVTEY.00B

    Where did you get this version information? Because I haven't seen it anywhere.

    Thanks.
