Hi all,

We are going to produce a new animation in 4K at 60Hz. We have 4K displays at the moment but not yet the graphics card. I have done some goggling but found very few information. Could anyone tell me what are the possible ways of connecting a 4K display which supports 60 Hz to a graphics card which has some HDMI or DP or DVI outputs. What points we should be careful when buying the cards? Thx.

I know that HDMI only supports 4K 30Hz. What about having two HDMI connections from graphics card to the display? Is there any display + graphics card doing such tricks?
 
There are a couple of 4K screens doing that, where basically each half of the screen is considered a separate display and each cable address' one of them.
Though it has issues, I suggest just getting a screen that outright supports 4K with a single cable than getting one with a work-around solution like that.

As pointed out by Huilun, its not like DisplayPort or Dual LInk DVI is hard to find on a graphics card, both have been standard on graphics cards for a long while.
