Can I run 2x 4K 60Hz monitors on RX 460 or GTX 1050?

I need to run 2x 4K 60Hz monitors for business not gaming...
I know that RX 460 and GTX 1050 has DP 1.4 and HDMI 2.0, so theoretically I can connect 2 monitors at 4K 60 HZ resolution...is it correct?

Thank you in advance!
 
It may be possible to drive them as you say with a combination of hdmi and dp but I haven't seen any info on that method anywhere. You will almost certainly get 4K@30Hz per screen though.

Some mention of the display possibilities are in this review of the 460:
http://www.tomshardware.co.uk/amd-radeon-rx-460,review-33628.html

Asus exposes three display outputs on its rear bracket, dropping one of the dual-link DVI ports we saw on the Strix RX 470. This leaves the Strix RX 460 with one dual-link DVI-D output, HDMI 2.0b, and a DisplayPort 1.3 (HBR3/1.4 HDR-ready) connector. That's enough for 4K at 120 Hz and 5K resolution at 60 Hz, but not 8K at 60 Hz, which would necessitate a second DisplayPort output.

Theoretically it should be possible since the review says 4K@120HZ is possible. However, A higher card like the RX470 with 2xDP will be gauranteed to run 4K@60Hz per port.

If it's for business just buy a RX480 and have it as a tax deductible business cost :p
