Besides the monitor name and the graphics card it’s connected to, you may need information related to theActive signal mode,Bit depth,Color format, andColor space.
All this can be found in the display settings, but a third-party tool is usually more helpful. Let’s learn about both!
How do I find my display information on Windows 11?
1. View the Display settings
The advanced display settings are one of the easiest ways to view the screen resolution settings and monitor details. Remember, it works for wireless displays as well.

TheSystem Informationapp is a built-in tool that lists everything about the PC in an orderly manner. Apart from the monitor details, you will also find information related to Sound, Network, Storage, and Printing, amongst others.
3. Use a third-party software

4. Search the Internet
If you want to find out more details about the monitor, say compatibility, various features, or things only advanced users require, head to the manufacturer’s website and open the monitor’s official page. It will list out all the information you would ever need.
Even third-party sellers and e-commerce platforms provide device details, so you could check that as well. But we wouldn’t blindly rely on the information provided on these websites.
