There are three sets of specs involved.
1- The laptop HDMI capability
2- The new monitor HDMI capability
3- The builtin screen on the laptop.
The laptop screen is 15.6" diagonal FHD (full-HD, 1080p) IPS BrightView micro-edge WLED-backlit (1920 x 1080).
Your monitor has resolution of 4K UHD (3840 x 2160) via HDMI 2.0.
You PC has an HDMI 1.4b port that can drive 4096×2160 at 24 Hz or 3840×2160 at 24, 25, and 30 Hz.
You're good to go. Even though you integrated monitor on the PC isn't 4K capable, the HDMI port and internal electronics it has can provide a UHD signal. If you have a UHD file to play or view, it will appear at full quality on the monitor.
