Can my graphics card run a wide screen high def' monitor?

[buachille]

Searched the forum, and I've googled, but I still don't know so I'm posting.

I have this graphics card:

Gigabyte ATI Radeon HD 7970 GHz Edition Windforce 3X 3072MB GDDR5 PCI-Express Graphics Card

I'm thinking of a widescreen monitor. Maybe not this one, but something like it in terms of pixel count - https://www.overclockers.co.uk/acer...e-zeroframe-curved-led-monitor-mo-109-ac.html

Will my graphics card run that thing? I've looked at AMD's specs for this card and it says 2560 x 1600 maximum, but I'm reading other stuff online that seems to contradict this???

Uses:

Photoshop
Video editing
Lots of low power apps like MS office, Acrobat and other work programs.

Not currently doing any gaming but might go back to it sometime. What would happen if I tried to run a game, assuming it would run the other stuff above.

Currently using a Dell 2560 x 1600 monitor (ancient - doesn't even have HDMI output) and it's great, but I can see that I'd work even faster with more room on screen.

Not sure why the Specifications page for that GPU on Gigabyte's website lists the max supported res as 2560x1600. That's only for the DVI output on the card, not the others. The FAQ for the card lists a more comprehensive answer:
http://www.gigabyte.com/support-downloads/faq-page.aspx?fid=2759&pid=4102

Specifically:

It varies by the output, please refer to the information below:
Dual Link DVI: 2560 x 1600 @60Hz
DisplayPort: 4096 x 2160 @60Hz
HDMI: 4096 x 2160 @24Hz,*3840×2160 @30 Hz

Connect the new monitor by DisplayPort (so make sure you have a miniDP to DP cable) and you'll be all good.

EDIT - Just noticed you've linked to the G-Sync version of the monitor, which works best when paired with a powerful Nvidia card. It'll work with an AMD card, but you won't benefit from the G-Sync module at all during games. I think the FreeSync version of that monitor is model number XR341CK, but happy to be corrected by anyone if there's any other differences.
