Hi brothers,

I using windows 10, currently have 2 x 1080p monitor at 24".

Now i plan to upgrade 1 of them into 4k. Possible to use split screen mode? Since one is 4k and one is 1080p.

Right now i using 1 for windowed gaming and 1 for watching movie/surfing internet.

I plan to change the main monitor into 4k. After that i wonder if i can still use the secondary one in 1080p?

What is the size of your 4k monitor?
If it is 27" or 28" and you using zoom 150% in windows 10 while the other monitor is normal 100%, then you will regret it.
Your main desktop monitor will be clear and the other monitor will be very blur.
I think it is because windows 10 adjust and zoom again from your main desktop.
