Thanks for the responses all!

He opened up the machine and we found out (or he remembered now?) that
he had upgraded the card almost 2yrs ago to a GT730

https://www.amazon.com/ZOTAC-GeForce-Express-Graphics-ZT-71115-20L/dp/B00NN97MMY

Which besides being fanless, and apparently dying after a couple
years, did work quite well for him. Since he's not at a 4k tv yet
we'll just buy another of the same and hope it lasts a little longer
this time.

Thanks!
