Excuse Me for the "rude" question,but are you sure of what you say ?
Because if that was the case,u-boot didn't work even on my large HDMI
monitor with a resolution of 1920x1080. But it works there. Using the pure
logic reasoning I assume that it is able to parse EDID information.

I'm also sure that it works with a monitor that has a lower resolution than
1920x1080,maybe 1600x1440. Point here is that I think there is a resolution
limit under which it will stop working.
How can I know what this is ?

The easier method is to buy a new display,let's say that runs at 1024x768
and check,but...it costs money. I would like to know what this limit is
asking here and there.
