I am building a computer for work i7-6700, Asus WS motherboard 32 gb ram, mnve hard driveI am going to get a 32, 4K monitor. Computer is used with 10-15 Microsoft office apps and around 20 other programs running at one time. I.e. PDF files email , web browser etc. I don't need a card for gaming just work. Any suggestions will be appreciated. I was leaning towards a gtx 1060 3gb. I want the card capable of a lot of multitasking with no ghosting are lags. Also I've read every uhd monitor review but am unsure so any suggestions on it would be appreciated. Thanks also money wise don't want to be wasteful but proficient in choices. Anycard between 3-$500 but I don't want to waste money on something I don't need.

If it's just for work, i'd say that the 1050 non TI edition would probably be sufficient. if you've got 35 apps open at once (which just seems like poor management to me) you're putting a load on your CPU, not GPU. Consider putting your large graphics card budget into Broadwell-E.
 


Basically what you have listed above is not graphics intensive, and as mentioned in the post above, will load more the cpu than the gpu. But the 6700 will be able to handle it pretty much.
You can also look at the newest gen kabylake i7-7700 @ around $10 extra approx.

Not required. The i7 should be able to handle it fine. It has 8 logical cores with 4ghz per core, which is more than sufficient.
If you want to go proper workstation way, then look for Xeon.
