What resolution do you use, in the iMac 27" 5k?

Thanks!

Regards.

The default one, "Looks like 2560 x 1440". I prefer to avoid the scaled resolutions, and that one provides enough screen space for me.

5120x2880@2x
I.e. "Looks like 2560x1440" as well. Integer scaling gives better results most the time, and the screen space is pretty good I think.
That was before the iMac died anyway. Waiting for a refresh

I use 3200x1800 as i prefer to have as much content on my screen as possible without it being too small.

Default paired with an external 27” QHD monitor. Everything appears the same size on both (but clearer and sharper on the iMac).

Hey, what configuration do you think I need to run 5120x2880@2x AND a 4K monitor at 3840x2160?

To run something depends on your expectations. 60FPS in games is vastly different to just a smooth desktop experience. For the latter, refer to Apple's technical specifications for monitor attachments
