Geforce GTX 1060 6GB would run iRacing on triples Samsung G5 32' curved

[RicardoNunes79]

I'm trying to upgrade to triples Samsung G5 Odyssey 32' curved because I have already one. 

Would the GTX 1060 6GB run iRacing on a decent settings? Or do I need to buy a monster graphic card?

My Pc specs are:

Motherboard: Asus ROG Strix Z370-H Gaming

CPU: Intel Core i7-8700K 3.7Ghz

GPU: MSI GeForce GTX 1060 Armor OC V1 6GB GDDR5

Power supply: Thermaltake Toughpower Grand RGB 850W 80 Plus Gold Modular

Cooler: Thermaltake Riing Silent 12 Pro CPU

RAM: Corsair Vengeance LPX DDR4 2400 PC4-19200 32GB 4x8GB

 

Thanks in advance!

seeing what the developers put in the recommended specs, Your mileage may vary but it should be like a few frames drop if I'm being optimistic

I've checked but they don't make reference to triples anyhwere. Only find this: https://www.iracing.com/system-requirements-2/

I've read a lot of comments everywhere but I'm confused with all different specs people have.

oh weird, Why was the steam page of iracing so high end tho? It weirded me out for a second, other than that yeah an ultrawide monitor won't drop you too much framerates if I'm being optimistic...

3 x 2560 x 1440p is a lot of pixels, expect large frame drops in traffic and some tracks grandstands etc.

That's basically 5K res total, so look at what people say about running that game at 4K with a 1060 and expect worse.

[RicardoNunes79]

What do you guys think would be acceptable as a graphic card to do that? 

Or maybe It's easy (cheaper) if I use triples 27'? Also with triples 27' would be good or even for that I need to update the graphic card?

Thanks

So I should be looking at the resolution that graphic card can afford, right? 

Something like this would work? 

https://www.pccomponentes.com/msi-amd-radeon-rx-6700-xt-gaming-x-12gb-gddr6

Digital Maximum Resolution 7680 x 4320

Thanks!

Should I be looking for triples 27' then?

Size doesn't matter, resolution does.

That why I'm confused: 

 

My card is the 6GB and they say it have Digital Maximum Resolution 7680 x 4320

https://www.pccomponentes.com/msi-geforce-gtx-1060-armor-oc-v1-6gb-gddr5

 

Also for this one that have 12GB and they say it have Digital Maximum Resolution 7680 x 4320 too!

Thanks for the help guys!

[Kilrah]

Well they will both "work", just that the more resolution you're driving the worse the performance will be. The card might support outputting to 7680 x 4320 just fine, but with terrible performance. That's not in any spec, you look at reviews.

[RicardoNunes79]

Ok, I guess this can't done!

Thanks all for your help guys!

iRacing is good in terms of optimization, the in-game graphics quality adjustments are great for tweaking to your desired quality/FPS targets.

 

A 1060 6gb would give you a decent triple 1080p experience as the game isn't particularly hard to run.

 

For 1440p triples ideally i'd be looking at a 2080ti, a 6700xt or a 3070     A team mate of mine runs triple 1440p with a 2070 Super and manages to get by.
