GUI monitor count & resolution performance effects

PostThu Oct 04, 2018 9:34 pm

As I mull over my GUI monitor upgrade, I started wondering how much the the resolution and number of monitors you have effects editing, grading, and rendering performance.

Has anyone seen any benchmarks, or have any anecdotal opinions on this topic?

For example if you are using one or two 1080p monitors currently and swap over to 2 UHD monitors, is performance noticeably impacted?

I know for some applications the change can be negligible, and in others it can be extreme. unfortunately I don't have a bunch of monitors sitting around to test with.
