@shoq I could tell a funny related story. I had a Debian installation I used in a spare setup. It was a scrounged Lenovo tower with an i5-4460 processor, 8g, hd. I upgraded it to a 120gb SSD and used whatever 19 or 20-in monitor there was.
After a while I decided that I wanted a 4k monitor because they were getting cheap. I checked the manual on that old Lenovo and it said it couldn't do it. So I actually got a really good deal on a gaming PC at $600.
