Can i run 2 4k monitors?
As such, you can only have two 4K monitors @30 Hz in any given setup, as each monitor requires 38% of the total data throughput provided by a DisplayPort output. The data throughput used with a single 4K monitor @60 Hz effectively doubles the amount of data being used, which results in 76% of the total data being used.

Should i get a 2k or 4k monitor for xbox series s?
The Xbox Series X supports 1080p, 1440p and 4K resolutions natively. A 4K monitor will deliver the highest fidelity experience but at the very least, we'd recommend looking for a monitor that supports some kind of adaptive sync and 120Hz refresh rates.
