Thank you in advance for your help.
My computer at work has a 4k monitor hooked into the desktop via HDMI, hence I'm only getting 4k resolution at 30hz. This is literally giving me a headache.
Can you please recommend the cheapest option available to me for a video card that I can add on so I can get myself to a proper 60hz via displayport before my eyes explode? Please keep in mind that I will not be getting a new PSU, so I'll need to see if we can get this to work without having to do anything other than add a video card. For the sakes of simplicity, I think this would be best if the options presented were powered by the PCIe slot rather than the PSU, if that's even an option with what I'm asking for.
Here's the detailed specs on the computer that the card will need to work with.
