So I have my awesome Qnix monitor finally and it works great thanks to peoples suggestions here.

:lol: So I'm wondering what the best GPU is for handling that thing like a boss and also gaming at high frame rates because the monitor can be overclocked to 120 hz. This was my first computer build and my GPU is an EVGA Geforce 760. So far everything's been great, but just wanna know if this graphics card is strong enough. Graphics card needs to support Dual DVI ports for the Qnix monitor ( which I assume most do ).

Thanks everyone! I also use the monitor for digital painting and 3D animation if that helps somewhat. So I am using the computer for both.

What is the max frame rate you can get with the 760 if you are overclocking the monitor? Nice screen name by the way.

Not worried about surround atm. I'm getting solid 96 hz on my Qnix monitor for Skyrim in 2k resolution. Not bad. But was only running 62 frames on some Sonic game that was running in Unreal Engine. : P

First are you using the 2GB or 4GB version of the 760? I'm using dual Gigabyte GTX 760's 2GB in SLI at 2K resolution on the ASUS ROG PG278Q and if I had to start over I would of used the 4GB versions of the cards. Still happy with the performance to price ratio but gets sluggish when textures are too high. Note that with SLI you need a Power supply with enough power and a case with good air flow since the cards do heat up when playing graphic intensive games Like the Witcher 3. At this point in time you can get 2x 4GB 760's for under 300$ on Ebay.
