Can 8th Generation Intel® Core™ i7-8550U w/ UHD 620 support a 1920 x 1200 external monitor?

I have a Dell Ultrasharp U2415 monitor with a native resolution of 1920 x 1200. I would like to purchase a laptop with either an 8th generation i5-8250U or an i7-8550U processor with the UHD 650 internal gpu.

Will either of those cpu's/igpu support a native resolution of 1920 x 1200? I do not want to have to use interpolation/scaling; I want to use the native resolution of 1920 x 1200.

I will use the monitor mainly for work documents and web browsing. I doubt that I'll ever use the monitor for gaming or watching movies.

TIA!
