Yes and no. A screen rated for 4k at 60Hz can downscale to any resolution, including 1080x1920, but you are still going to be locked in at 60Hz.

asked 11/13/20Planning to get a gaming laptop and I have the option to go 4k60. If I go that route, can I change in the settings the resolution down to 1080 so I can play at a faster frame rate or is it locked at 60?
