Xbox Series X Display Resolutions and Connections Up Close

Are you a PC gamer with a 1440p 144Hz monitor? Do you crave an Xbox Series X? No worries, we confirm full support from day one so you’re good to go

More importantly for high frame rate buffs, the added power of the Xbox Series X now means 120Hz is effectively universal to all supported resolutions. Remember that it’s up to individual games to accept these framerate and resolution settings. The console can upscale pixel counts, but framerates are a different matter. You may select 120Hz in the UI but that doesn’t mean every game will run at that rate. Any game that can, will. From our experience, The Falconeer for example is supposed to run at 120Hz but appears to revert to 60Hz regardless. We’re certain these are early days and such issues will get worked out.  

Take a look below, 120Hz is now fully supported in 4K and 1440p, the most important resolutions for contemporary PC gamers we think. 

One of the first things we thought upon getting our Xbox Series X was that the console is a lot smaller than we expected based on images shared by Microsoft. That’s not a bad thing, it’s a good thing. The Xbox Series X fits very nicely and elegantly on a desktop next to a PC and monitor setup, and with its subtle boxy design it’s quite pleasing to look at. We definitely think PC gamers who want to also enjoy high end console gaming would do well to get an Xbox Series X, especially since support for 1440p is so seamless via the simplicity of an HDMI cable.

To wrap this quick look at the Xbox Series X, take a look at just how compact this lovely console is in the picture at the top of the article, or the one at the bottom for comparison. Bear in mind the new controller is ever so slightly smaller than the Xbox One controller. We even added the old school 3.5mm adapter from the 2013-2016 era, because we like the extra heft it provides. The console still looks small, because it is!

Have fun everyone!
