Question Support for two 5120 x 2880 Asus PA27JCV monitors at 60 Hz refresh

[davebtw]

I just took delivery of two Asus PA27JCV monitors and want to run them at full 5K resolution of 5120 x 2880 at 60 Hz. My RTX 3060 cannot support that resolution. I am willing to purchase a new graphics card, but since the max refresh is only 60 Hz I may not need a top gaming GPU. I have tried to find a selector guide for NVIDIA based cards but have come up short., The AI algorithms say that a 4060 might work but a 4070 would be better. Do I need that much horsepower even when not gaming?

I will be using this workstation for music publishing, photo scanning and video up conversion and editing.

Any suggestions will be very welcome!!!

Stuck at 30Hz then?

You'll need a card that supports DisplayPort 2.0 at least or HDMI 2.1

So, doesn't have to a massively expensive GPU.

RX 6600 would work for HDMI, RTX 4060 as well.

DisplayPort 2.1 you would need an Intel B570 or B580 or a shiny new RTX 50 series or RX 9070 /9070 XT.


Certainly won't hurt to have a faster GPU for video up converts.

I am looking at a RTX 4060 and yes the video upconverts would help as well. I already use hardware encoding from my 3060. Some answers I have gotten say the 4060 is not fast enough, that at least a 4070 is needed. But I am not a gamer so would that matter?
