UHD capable graphics card suggestion wanted

Is it a full size or mini case? If you dont know then the PC's model number would help. That can limit your options.

Basically anything will do for that use case, you just need it to fit and not require additional power if you cant provide that.

I have a PC (i5 - that has an Intel on board graphics (Intel HD Graphics 4600) thatr has a max resolution of 1920 by 1080.

CPU processor is:
3.10 gigahertz Intel Core i5-4440
256 kilobyte primary memory cache
1024 kilobyte secondary memory cache

I want to up the resolution to UHD or close. Which (low cost)at graphics card will do this for me? I am not using the card for computer games, so speed is secondary.

Any suggestions?

GeForce GT 1030 is what you want if plan on upgrading an old PC into a dedicated and quiet HTPC capable of playing 4K HEVC HDR @ 60fps videos.

Only pulls 30 watts so no additional power needed, it will pull all the power it needs from the PCI express slot.

GT710 is a bit cheaper but will only run 4k at 25Hz
