New user here looking for some help. I just purchased twin Samsung U28D590D UHD 4k monitors for my setup. I currently have a Radeon R7 260X 2GB DDR5 card and it runs great (I haven't tried any high end pc games on the new monitors yet, but this card ran skyrim on my old single 21 inch HP monitor flawlessly on close to max settings.
I have two questions here:
1. On the right side monitor, I like to run my XBOX one. Im trying to figure out what refresh rate it is using being connected via HDMI? Ive read that digital port is good for 60HZ and hdmi is only good for 30HZ. The monitor supports 60HZ. When I have it hooked up to the card, its via Digital Port so I get 60HZ (or am assuming). Am I getting 30HZ or 60HZ from the xbox? I would think only 30HZ because of HDMI, but then again, its an xbox which when connected to a TV, should display a higher HZ regardless?
2. I was recommended a NVIDA GFORCE GTX 960 2GB DDR5 card as an upgrade. Would this be a worthy swap vs my Radeon? I don't PC game much, mainly oblivion and skyrim, which I do like to run the higher settings on.
I appreciate any feedback in advance and sorry if I sounded like to much of a noob with the 30/60 HZ thing.
