![]() So, whether it be for next-gen high-resolution gaming, video and movie streaming, or even just office work or image/video editing, now is the best time to invest in a 4K 60 Hz monitor. Indeed, the cost for making a home theatre PC (HTPC) that can handle streaming services like Netflix at high resolutions has dropped significantly. Luckily, with the new generation of hardware coming out within the next year: like Ryzen 4000 series CPUs, DDR5 RAM, and Nvidia Ampere 3000 series GPUs, the transition toward 4K resolutions at even higher framerates is soon rather imminent.Īs mentioned, for gaming applications the processing power required is significantly higher than, for example, streaming at 4K resolutions, where even an integrated graphics processor like the Intel UHD Graphics 630 on an i5-10400 CPU can handle the task at 60 Hz framerates. ![]() ![]() It won’t always reach the 60 FPS mark, but it will do so on average. The current sweet spot for 4K 60 FPS gaming, in regards to a price & value ratio, appears to be the RTX 2070 Super. ![]() To provide an example of a relatively recently released game, let’s look at Call of Duty: Warzone requirements and benchmarks.ĬomputerBase shows us that even with an Intel i9-9900K and 32 GB of 3200 MHz CL 14 DDR4 RAM, the Nvidia 2060 Super would still not make the cut for 60 FPS at 3.840 x 2160p resolutions while the mighty RTX 2080 Ti only averaged 92.3 FPS. Even the Nvidia RTX 2080 Ti cannot handle 144 Hz framerates at such high resolutions for graphically demanding games. It is currently impossible to display framerates above 60 FPS, at 144 Hz for example, for triple-A titles without the use of multiple GPUs. Processing a game at high frame rates and resolutions is very much demanding in regards to processing power. ![]() With the release of the next-gen Xbox Series X and Playstation 5 consoles, both companies have stated that their products will be capable of display 4K resolutions at 60 FPS though it’s difficult to state that this would be the case for all the games that are released on their consoles. Current generation Sony and Microsoft gaming consoles can only support 4K resolutions at 30 FPS – and that is for their upgraded iterations. The only thing holding back this resolution, is the price of the hardware needed to make full use of 4K monitor capabilities – at least when it comes to gaming. As monitor display technology advances, 1080p resolutions are gradually becoming antiquated, and 4K monitors are taking their place. ![]()
