Hi all , I am going to build a new Pc as my old Lenovo is quite a few years old now. I want to build a Pc to support 4k resolution. I have a Samsung UHD TV and would be nice to run the Pc through it.
I don't play any games so no need for an expensive graphics card or i7 CPU which I would never use.
The PC would be used as a monitor only for browsing the internet and a few you tube vids and editing my photographic pictures.
My initial finding was I needed a motherboard that supports the 4k resolution (preferably on board graphics) the CPU also has to support 4k ( New Intel Haswell's ) also the connection between the PC and the Screen had to support fast HDMI connection 2.0
The company I usually use to get my PC parts from is Scan computers and I have found below what I think would do the job but would appreciate and further information or knowledge please.
