My 4 year old Vaio/windows 7 has an hdmi port, and I regularly use it with a Dell UltraSharp U2410 x 1920 x 1080. This is a "regular" dpi display (92 dpi or so)
I want to use it with a 4k or 5k display (such as an ASUS PB279Q 27" 4K/ UHD 3840x2160).
But I am worried that everything will be small.
Do high res displays smartly resample to get it right in this situation?
Or ?

Answer:
The Vaio laptop in question has a built in display of 1920x1080, and the external hdmi supports a max res of 1920x1080.
When we plug the ASUS PB279Q (which is 3840 x 2160) in to the hdmi port, the monitor automatically upscales the output.
Some output is a tad blurred, but overall it looks very good.
(Yes, we actually purchased the ASUS PB279Q... and got lucky. This thread was attempt to reduce the luck factor...)

You should first see if your graphics can even support a 4K resolution, especially if you have integrated graphics. Secondly, assuming your HDMI is v1.4 it can only support full 4K
4096×2160at 24 Hz or3840×2160 (Ultra HD)at 24 Hz/25 Hz/30 Hz. – DrZoo – 2016-02-21T21:25:19.833@drzoo no. Graphics card in laptop cannot support 4k. That is why I ask if monitor will upscale – Jonesome Reinstate Monica – 2016-02-21T22:54:46.617
