    A fresh install did the job.
    I'll never know what happened but now it works great.

    Thank you very much guys!
    Fresh install of what? Kubuntu or the NVidia drivers?

    It could be an xorg config tweak, but I have no idea what it could be.
    Only last thing I can suggest is to see what the nvidia settings program does as opposed to Plasma's System Settings module in configuring the screen.

    My laptop: https://www.notebookcheck.net/HP-Pav....170406.0.html
    My external monitor: http://www.samsung.com/es/monitors/u.../LU28E590DSEN/
    I'm using the v1.4 cable that came with the monitor.
    I have dual boot with Windows 10 and it works great there.
    I'm quite sure there's no hardware issues.
    I'm going to test with a fresh install of Kubuntu 18.04 (this is an upgrade from 17.10), Kubuntu 16.04 and Ubuntu 18.10, just to compare different performances.
    I straggle to don't use a mac for working, I'll fight till the end

    I really appreciate your interest in help me.

    I forgot to notice this is a laptop here. Are you trying to run dual monitors? The gpu may not have enough oomph to run a 4k screen plus whatever your laptop's screen is using. Also, how old is the HDMI cable? Not all of them support 4k video speeds, though most should.

    Other than that, I can only suggest trying out different driver versions after adding the driver updates ppa:

    You should see the beta 396 driver and perhaps the 340 driver.

    Have you installed the proprietary Nvidia drivers from the Driver manager in System Settings?.
    I will bet the free, open Nouveau driver may struggle a bit in the older gpu on 4k screens, but the Nvidia driver should have no problem with it.

    started a topic [SOLVED] 3840x2160 resolution lag

    3840x2160 resolution lag

    Hi, I bought ultra hd monitor for my laptop and connect it via HDMI (Nvidia 960m).
    The whole UI is lagged. If I pick 2560x1140 or 1920x1080 resolutions, everything is smooth.
    I've tried every speed-up tweak I found, nothing happens.
    Any idea on how to improve it? The most notable issue is the mouse lag, the pointer goes fractions of seconds behind, and when I select text and move the mouse while clicking, that text selection animation is really lagged.
    But in the end everything feels lagged.
    I'm sad cos I paid a a bunch of bills and now is seems that I have to re-sell the monitor -.-

    Please any advice is welcome,

    Thanks!
