13-inch rMBP (Late 2013) and 3440x1440?

Can a 13-inch rMBP (Late 2013) drive a 3440x1440 display at 60Hz without it being choppy and laggy? I am thinking of replacing my aging Thunderbolt Display with the LG 34UC97 but not quite sure if the Late 2013 will handle it fine or if I need to upgrade to the 2015 model in order to get a smooth experience.

Anyone with a 3440x1440 display and a 13-inch rMBP?

Performance issues with UI lag are currently more software than hardware, so I'd see what OS X 10.11 brings before buying new hardware. Reportedly, they are focusing on bug fixes and performance improvements, which will hopefully guide your decision.

Okay. But 'should' the 13-inch rMBP (Late 2013) be able to drive the display 60Hz?

Anyone?? I will buy this monitor today if my 13-inch rMBP Late 2013 will support it at 60Hz??

Doesn't look like it.

But one display at 3440x1440 or two at displays at 2560x1600? It has to drive less pixel if only using one 3440x1440 display?

Yeah. I just found the thread you are talking about. It seems that the 3440x1440 reolution runs fine at 60Hz on Late 2013, Mid 2014 and Early 2015 models (13-inch rMBP).
