Will I need a new graphics card?

[JonoB]

I'm currently running 2 24" monitors (1920x1080), and I'm considering upgrading to a new 34" curved monitor (3440 x 1440).

This will be used almost entirely for work (programming).

I'm currently running my dual monitors off the motherboard graphics (Gigabyte B360M-D3H Intel B360). Will the motherboard be able to run the 34" without any issues, or will I need to get a graphics card?

As long as you have an output matching an input on your monitor, with or without an adapter, don't see why it shouldn't work.

Outputs are totally fine (display port or HDMI) - my question is more around whether I'll need more GPU processing power?

From the gigabyte website:

1. 1 x DisplayPort, supporting a maximum resolution of 4096x2304@60 Hz
   * Support for DisplayPort 1.2 version, HDCP 2.2, and HDR.

1 x HDMI port, supporting a maximum resolution of 4096x2160@30 Hz
* Support for HDMI 1.4 version and HDCP 2.2.

you should be fine.

For 2D onboard is fine.
