Graphics card need

For Illustrator, InDesign, and Photoshop, both RTX 4050 and RTX 4060 work well.

But RTX 4060 (8GB) is better, faster and more future-proof.

Great choice if you want smooth performance!

Perhaps you could help me,
(although this is no longer a topic of program requirements),
that even if I use additional monitors, it makes a very big difference/significance whether the display is
165Hz 350nits G-Sync 100sRGB
or
144Hz 350nits G-Sync 45NTSC?

I am thankful!

Both, to be honest, are greatly overpowered for all but perhaps some Photoshop operations assisted by the GPU, and very complex work in Premiere and AfterEffects, which can never get quite enough graphical processing power. The only advantage to either would be for gaming at high FPS, and possibly some very advanced numerically-intensive graphics applications like AutoCAD.

I'm running a 2060 with two monitors, a 5K ultrawide and a 4K 27-inch. Once in a while, on a very large photoshop image running a complex transformation like perspective warp, I notice a distinct pause before the operation completes. That's it. (I also run games on the 5K at around 60 FPS).

So buy either of those as suits you, but a 3060 — just to be safe and a little more recent — would be more than enough power for these apps.

Or pick up a 2060 and save your money for a next generation, when it's called for. BTW, system RAM will boost performance on most Adobe apps, especially InDesign, far more than a little more expensive video horsepower. If you don't have at least 16GB, upgrade to that — or 32GB for some extra margin. It will pay off more than just about any other system upgrade (CPU, video, local drives etc.)
