bandwidth depends mainly on resolution and frame rate, not the specific game. So for 4K at 60fps regardless of title, the required data is consistent. PCIe 3 x16 can support that bandwidth.

PCIe refers to the interface connecting the card, not the monitor. It supports 16 lanes, offering high speed. The connection is extremely fast; otherwise, communication between the motherboard and GPU would become too slow. Why are you inquiring? Observe how a 4090 operates at PCIe 3.0 16x speed, unlike its native 4.0 16x connector.

PCIe 3 and newer offer only small improvements, while high-end cards provide almost no extra performance. As long as your card supports 4K at 60fps, it should work well in PCI3, 3, 4, or 5 depending on the game and configuration.

I think the issue is actually the other way around—the performance drops more at lower resolutions compared to higher ones. The game plays a role, with some titles using more assets than others (possibly due to streaming). The graphics card's VRAM count matters too, along with its available bandwidth. Which card are you considering?
