I tried -device VGA,vgamem_mb=32. I did not see any resolution above 1080p on a Windows 10 guest. virtio-vga has many more resolutions available, it was just missing 4k. I have the virtio-win-0.1.190 driver pack installed. I don't use qxl, because it makes the Windows GUI sluggish for me. I don't have problems with VGA or virtio-vga. Best regards, Vitaly
