The only good option for an Nvidia card that does 4K is the 1030
models.  The others draw far too much power - they are set up for
gaming.  A fanless 1030 would likely be the best idea.  Fans are a
component that die earlier than anything else, unless you do annual
maintenance on them, which is a pain.  I think all of them on sale
should be PCI 3.0 models.  You want a motherboard that is PCI 3.0 if
you buy now, as that will last longer into the future.
