Going twin monitor can my Gfx Card cope?
'm thinking of going to a dual monitor setup, I've relocated my printer and got a dual monitor riser set up and measurement wise I can fit 2 x 27 inch monitors side by side, so that's all good.
I've got a 3060 ti so I wondered if this was enough to power 2 x 27 inch 1440p monitors as ideally I wanted to match the monitors for size, shape and display brightness etc. I doubt if I'd be running any games on both screens simultaneously, but using one to play, and one for other desktoppy stuff, am I dreaming or would I need 2 x 1080p instead.

Size, shape, and display brightness aren't factors. The card just supplies a HDMI signal of what to display. The monitor does the rest.
If a card can handle a 2D content 2160p display, it can easily handle 2 separate 2D content 1440p displays.
It's only when getting into higher resolution 3D games that any issues need to be considered.

it would run 4K decent settings with 3 more screens outputting 2D. Jebus I been using multi monitors for over a decade likely 15 years + including ATI Eyefinity (3 spanned screens) likely well over 10 years ago and Monitors and Tv when cards shipped with SVideo output probably like 20 years ago
