    I don't game, but have 1 * 5k monitor, 1 * 4k monitor and 1 * 1080p monitor, I need all of them to run at 60Hz (Windows 11 pro)

    Preferably a passively cooled monitor, if possible

    Would this fit your machine?

    Has fans but will run without as long as it's cool (i.e. not running games).

    Alternatively you could look for a used Nvidia Quadro P620 (4x mini-DP 1.4) which should be able to do 5K 60Hz afaik. They have a small fan but might be quiet enough.

    Another alternative would be Intel Arc A310 / Arc A380 which have DP2.0 that should definitely run 5K 60Hz without DSC (Display Screen Compression) however I'm not up-to-date on how stable their driver is for multi-monitor.

    Cheers. According to our wise friend:

    And I'm running a third monitor on it too, which is probably too much for the poor RX560

    Currently I use a 5700XT, which I have spare but was planning to sell. These currently go for €200 second hand max, so very little difference between it and a new RX560. And the other GPUs you mention are probably harder to get / more expensive. So I guess I will have to stick with what I have for now, although it is not a very energy efficient solution

    Thanks a million for your help though!
