GTX 1060 for 4k video

[jguff330]

From what I have read, the 1060 isnt very impressive for 4k gaming, but is 4k video less demanding than 4k gaming or is it the same thing?

I am looking to run 2 4k monitors (27 inch) and 2 TVs (65 inch), never for gaming.

It should work fine. Watching videos and doing basic tasks on 4K would not be a big deal for 1060

are you sure he can run 2 x 4K monitor and 2 FHD TV all together at the same time ? I dont think so !

I think it only supports 2x4K screen only

GTX 1060 support up to 4 monitors. x2 4K and x2FHD should do

Would 16gb ram and i7 processor handle 4K editing with that card also?

it is not about the numbers of monitors alone ... there is a max resolution for each mode ...

for 4K editing more cores are always better , and go 32GB minimum.

if you can get the new 10 or 8 cores i7 that would be the best

if you want cheaper , the 6Cores one (Broadwel-E)
