NVIDIA graphics card with DP 1.2 and high res support

[Baddass]

i'm trying to identify a suitable graphics card to run a 4k resolution monitor at 60Hz via DisplayPort

It must have DP 1.2 and be able to support 3840 x 2160 resolution at 60Hz. Apparently the graphics card driver also needs to be able to support MST feature and also support DisplayID v1.3.


It doesn't need to be a high end graphics card for gaming, but i'm trying to find one which at least offers that res support at 60Hz via DisplayPort.

would this one do the trick?

I'd have hoped given the cost (~£700) it would, but spec seems to suggest max digital res of 2560 x 1600 at 60Hz

What are you using the card for?

just desktop use really. it's for testing the actual monitor, but i don't need to game on it but i do want to be able to run the monitor at that res and refresh rate

Built-in HD 4600 on Haswell CPU's

However, the following link says: http://www.pugetsystems.com/labs/articles/4K-Monitor-Requirements-and-Usage-492/

"The only other issue we had with DisplayPort was when we tried to use Intel Collage mode on the Intel HD 4600 graphics that is integrated onto the Intel Core i7-4770K. We were able to get the full resolution and refresh rate with DisplayPort in MST mode, but the display was extremely choppy to the point of un-usability. While we were using it, it felt like the refresh rate was closer to 20Hz rather than 60Hz. The strange thing is that this choppiness doesn't occur until you enabled Collage mode, so as long as you are fine with using the monitor as two virtual displays side by side rather than a single large display, it actually works great. "

So, might be problems, might not.. and no, if you have a screen that supports true 60hz on a single panel, like Panasonic W600 TV.

what about standalone graphics cards though?

I know the nVidia 7XX series support 4K and 4K surround. I could not verify 100% that it outputs with DP 1.2 at 60Hz though buddy
