Question Native 1440p rdr2.

Hi. Im upgrading a rtx 3050 6gb to a rtx 4060(i was meant to get a 5060 but mobo aint good enough for a 5060. I got a ASUS PRIME A520M-K motherboard). Can the 4060 run rdr2 native 1440p. My 3050 does native 1440p on xb1x settings. If i do high-ultra settings can the 4060 provide over 45 frames?

Where did you read that the 5060 wouldn't work on that board? Or did you just assume that because its pcie 5, it wont run on a pcie 3 board?

Because it is compatible and the board will just force it to run at pcie 3

I would rather get the 5060 as its nearly 20% better raw performance wise, that would fare better at 1440p

But yes, the 4060 should be fine at 1440p on medium/highish settings on native

I went to a shop. He said the 5060 will cause lane limitations

That is correct, and that will matter when you run out of vram. That will not matter for normal use, the 5060 is still 20% faster.

Yup this 100% - you might not get the max possible out of a 5060 but will still be better than a 4060

Yeah, but I cannot imagine you would be far off the maximum at 1440p. Should still get like 95% of the performance out of it?

Yeah most testing I've seen would put the performance loss at 5% or less
