I have an unusual requirement for a graphics card. The usage will be text or still image display (no gaming). O/S is Windows 10.

Available socket is PCIe 3.0, x16 electrical, x16 mechanical, and card must be full height, ½ length, and, can be no more than 0.7" thick (i e, cannot be double slot). Monitors are (1) BenQ GW2765 (2560 x 1440) and (2) Asus MG28U (3840 x 2160).

I'm asking for several different recommendations:
Card for single monitor (either 1 or 2).
Card that supports two or more 2K monitors.
Card that supports one 2K and one 4K monitor.
Card that supports two 4K monitors.

so you are limited to a single slot card


you are going to also need it to have either a DVI or HDMI plug for the 1440p monitor

and displayport for the 4k monitor


so something like this

What is a "970/980 or maybe even for a 980ti"? Can you provide a more complete description, or a link?

those are models of video cards

none of those will be single slot


so they are not relevant to you
