[SOLVED] Budget graphics card for 3440 x 1440 34" monitor

[ffrodrigues]

Hello all,

I'm going to use a "temporary" PC for a couple of months, and its graphics card doesn't support the 3440x1440 resolution the monitor is able to leverage.

Could you please help me with a really budget card that supports 3440x1440?
I won't use it for gaming, it's for working (I'm a developer)

Monitor model is:
Samsung 34" (3440 x 1440) LC34J791WTNXZA

Thank you.

Regards,

A GT 1030 should work just fine.

I have the Samsung C34F791 and connect to it via Display Port from a Radeon R9 285.

Hi,
Thank you for your reply.

Just a quick question,
I see a bunch of different vendors (Asus, EVGA, Gigabyte, etc...) when I go to the "where to buy" link below

https://www.geforce.com/hardware/desktop-gpus/geforce-gt-1030/buy-now-1030

Not sure what vendor I should go with...

Any recommendation?

Doesn't really matter. Just make sure you get a card with GDDR5 memory and not DDR4.

I bought one with GDDR5 as you recommended. It's working pretty well.
Thank you for your help.
