Hi There, I'm planning to upgrade my gaming monitor to 4K however, I'm not sure if my RTX 2060 would be able to manage. What is the best graphics card for 4K screens?

    +1. If your 4K screen is set for a 60 hertz refresh rate an RTX 2080 super might also work but an RTX 2080ti as Sajin has suggested will give you some future-proofing as well as the ability to handle 4K monitors above 60 hertz.

    I am still using an EVGA WC 1080 TI and it, well is just fine until the activity is excessive. For example... I have all my settings on high and in Borderlands 3 Slaughterstar 3000, when 10+ enemies right on top of me that are trying to kill me at the same time, the video card is beyond maxed out. It stutters for a few seconds so I can only spray and pray at that point. I do all I can to run and get out of the overload (Spread out the enemies). I get near death every time. Sometimes I get away, sometimes I do not...

    What 4K screen are we talking about and what t computer build? The 2080Ti of course is going to be best. The 2080 will handle 4K though and the 2070 can handle it in some games but does best at 1440p.

    in the 4K gaming performance you pretty much have one choice... The RTX 2080Ti. Next step down is a RTX 2080 Super. The RTX 2060 is able to play at 4K around 20-30FPS, where a RTX 2080Ti will get you around 50-60FPS. The RTX 2080/2080S are going to put you in the 40-50FPS range.
