    Wow, such a long time since I have posted here, surprised I remembered my password!

    I am setting up a small office PC using a Dell T20 server, it actually is an OK machine and I only need it for office work, browsing, youtube videos etc.

    Question is, I have a 4K monitor (Acer 23.6" 4K Prosumer) on the way and wondered if I could run it from this server at 4K 60Hz..

    The PSU has no PCI-e connectors so would be running from the slot only.

    I am guessing I need either DP1.2 or HDMI 2.0 output on the video card?

    Budget around £50 would be good..

    No gaming needed but would be interesting to try!

    Any ideas?

    Thanks, and good to be back!

    Cheapest card I could find is a NVidia Quadro K420 which does 3840 x 2160 at 60 Hz over DisplayPort and doesn't need any auxillary power.

    Edit: Just found an AMD FirePro W2100 for a bit less money that does 4096x2160 @ 60Hz (one monitor only though).
