[QUOTE="SoonerP226, post: 3515982, member: 26737"] I have a Samsung 65" 4K TV that I use as a monitor at home, and it works quite nicely on my work from home days. I'm using an older Gigabyte Brix with onboard Intel graphics; it's not quite up to the task for full-motion 4K video, but it does ok for Remote Desktop tasks--I will say, though, when I have ten PowerShell windows open with lots of fast-scrolling text, it does sound like it's throttling up for lift off. FWIW, as long as your computer has HDMI, DisplayPort, Mini DisplayPort, or Thunderbolt outputs, you'll probably be OK. Those latter three are simple cable conversions to HDMI. (HDMI to DisplayPort is a different question, though; that takes an active converter.) [/QUOTE]
