It's a bit pointless in something that advertises itself as a 4K gaming laptop, with that CPU/GPU combination. I have a GTX1070 with i7 7700k, and while it can manage 60fps 4K in Watch Dogs 2 with a mixture of High/Med settings, it's really for 1440p and 1080p with this standard of game. I expect the HK CPU means lower performance than that.

Still, for other tasks I love 4K on a laptop. Mine is smaller than this, with a 15.6" panel, but I can finally have several windows open at once in my professional creative software without any need to resort to a second display. At arm's length, I'm able to set the scaling really low and still be able to see everything comfortably (and conversely, nobody else can really neb in over my shoulder unless they're literally breathing down my neck!).
