Hey guys/gals,
I recently replaced my 1080p 27" triple monitor setup with a 4K 32" 60Hz curved triple monitor setup.
The monitors have 3 video inputs (2 x HDMI & 1 DP).
I have a surplus of Dell SFF XE3 PCs. I currently have 3 of these connected to the monitors (Work/Personal/Plex).
PC Specs:
i5 8500 @ 3.00 GHz, 32GB Dual-Channel DDR4 @ 1064MHz, Intel UHD Graphics 630 (Dell), 2GB ATI AMD Radeon R5 430
We have an XBOX One S (which my 18 yo daughter hogs, lol. It's in her room), so I just purchased an XBOX Series X for our L/R. Loving it! Got gamepass as well.
I was planning on just bringing the XBOX Series X back and forth from the L/R and my room whenever I felt like playing on my triple monitors. But decided against it due to the inconvenience. Also, all my research has led me to believe that ALL XBOXes can only do ONE monitor.
It dawned on me that I'm not taking full advantage of my triple monitor setup, gaming-wise. So, now I am itching to build a gaming PC (looking forward to playing Halo PC on all monitors). However, as you can see from my PC specs that my GPU capability won't cut it. So I'm planning on building a wall mounted PC (see attached pic) since the SFF case won't have enough room.
I'm thinking of purchasing a beefier GPU card (trying to stay under $500). I'm thinking of using the innards (MB/RAM) of the DELL PC.
Q1: If I get an RTX 3060 or RTX 4060 and pair with current PC specs, will that suffice?
Q2: There are hundreds of GPU options! Would an RTX 3060 with 16GB RAM be better than an RTX 4060 with 8GB RAM?
Q3: The max resolution of GPU cards that are stated are for one monitor, correct (per video output (HDMI/DP))?
