Dual DP Graphics Card for Older PC
Discussion
I have a Dell Optiplex 7010 which works fine with no issues but I'd like to upgrade the graphics card to run 2x 4k (3840x2160) screens, prfereably at 60Hz. I'm looking for a dual Displayport, low profile card that pulls less than 50W & supports a PCIe 2.0 bus.
There arer a few GT730 cards on ebay but I'm struggling to find out if these will support two 4K screens - the specs seem to indicate they might but aren't completely clear.
Can anyone clarify if this card will do what I want or suggest al alternative? I don't need it for gaming, just general Office type stuff.

If your monitors are displayport and not HDMI for 4k at 60hz you need a GPU with 2x Displayport 1.4 outputs, the GT730 doesn't have this, neither does the GT1030.
Cheap sub £200 Quadro are usually older DP 1.2 so no good for 2x 4k 60hz
Cheapest 2x DP 1.4 GPU I can find is the GT 1630 at £166.

It does require a 6pin PCIe power though, so will be 75W+
