Can Skyrim SE go up to 2560x1440?

My current monitor only goes up to 1440x900 (a 16:10 aspect ratio, rather than 16:9). However, I've got a monitor in the mail that purportedly can go up to 2560x1440.

 

However, when I go to the Skyrim Launcher, it only lets me increase the resolution up to 1440x810 or 1440x900.

 

Is that just how high Skyrim SE can go ... or is the launcher automatically detecting the max resolution of my current monitor and preventing me from setting the resolution any higher? When I get my new monitor, will the launcher allow me to select a higher resolution?

I am running a 2560x1440 at the moment. I believe once you have the new monitor installed you will get that resolution in the launcher settings. I also have the same setting in oldrim. In oldrim it is set to 16.9 aspect ratio and in SSE the 16.9 aspect ratio is grayed out, I assume this means it is running at 16.10 although I cannot be sure as I am not that knowledgeable about this.

Yes, it also can run 4k resolutions. But you should use the Unofficial Skyrim SE Patch, SKSE64+PapyrusUtil, SkyUI and BethINI due to several reasons, escpecially UI scaling.


In case of Problems, it can help to run the game by activating windowed mode + borderless in the BethINI.

4K resolution causes horrific microstutter in my instance. I have both a 55" 4K 120 Hz display & a 4K-compatible video card complete with 4K HDMI 2.0 cable connected to my TV/7.1 surround sound amplifier. I'm forced to downgrade my resolution to 1080p as a result. My OS (Windows 7 Professional x64) also locks my refresh rate to 60 Hz instead of the 120 Hz my display supports too. Borderless Windowed Mode won't work in my instance either due to issues with massive screen tearing, an indicator that v-sync is disabled in said mode. No amount of enabling v-sync in SkyrimPrefs.ini/video driver settings/ENB works when set to Borderless Windowed Mode either.
