    1920x1080 at 60Hz if you don't drop a video card in.

    Depends a lot on what you use it for. 4K so you can get multiple documents onscreen at once is quite a bit different than 4K with the latest game. :) Another factor is the power supply, various SKUs cam with 220W, 300W and 500W supplies. They usually choose the supply based on the graphics card installed, so I'd bet yours either has the 220W or a 300W. Either of those would need to be upgraded for many of the higher end video cards, but would work fine with a medium duty card.

    Thanks a lot for a prompt reply. What video card would you recommend to drop in this desktop for a 4K resolution screen? Thanks again!

    I don't know where the other two posters got 1080p from, but the maximum resolution actually goes beyond 1080p with the integrated Intel HD graphics chip (assuming 630 on the model with the i5-7400 Kaby Lake CPU).

    Over HDMI, you can do at least up to 4k (both 3840x2160 and 4096x2160; unsure about anything higher than those), but only at 30Hz max (this goes for all resolutions above 1080p up to 4k; only 30Hz max at those resolutions). Can personally confirm this is true right now (using 4k) :p
