Ryzen 5 2400G and monitor support doubts

I intend to build a PC (my first!) for productivity purposes, and thus either an ultra-wide or dual monitor setup is absolutely essential. Is the Vega 11 onboard graphics able to handle a 25.0" 2560x1080 60 Hertz monitor, and at what quality?
Additionally, I have read on forums that the Vega 11 does not support dual monitors. Could you please confirm this? (Asus - PRIME B350M-A Micro ATX AM4 Motherboard)

Lastly, does anyone have better suggestions that the above setup. Thanks in advance!!

If that is an official DisplayPort, HDMI or VGA standard compliant resolution, then the APU will handle it fine. If it's not, then you might need additional drivers provided by either the Monitor manufacturer or AMD itself (built inside the driver). The chances of this last bit are really low though, since it's really weird for Monitor manufacturers to go off-spec form the standards.

And what do you intend to do with this build? At the end of the day, any build must have a purpose in mind, no matter how basic or complex that might be.

From what I can read there, you might be locked to HDMI only.

Cheers!

It will be fine for your usecase. However that board can have issues with the apu if it's running on an older bios.
