I'm getting conflicting information about GT 710 and GT 730 GPUs 
 
The 710 I purchased on newegg a few years ago says it's max resolution is 4096x2160 via HDMI (Is this correct information?) 
I have the original box, but no max resolution is listed.

some of the others say max is 2160x1600 
https://www.evga.com/products/specs/gpu.aspx?pn=740e47c7-b9de-4c5c-b8ca-f98dbc5e3293
 
I'm interested in getting one from B-Stock (are any of these 4096x2160 capable)
P/N: 01G-P3-2731-RX
P/N: 02G-P3-1733-RX
 
P/N: 02G-P3-2717-RX - GT 710 Seems to be 4096x2160
https://www.evga.com/products/Specs/GPU.aspx?pn=170f8d1b-e8c4-4d02-932c-1c55fea2974a
 
GT 710 is capable of  4096x2160, and the GT 730s aren't ?
 
Purpose for this card purchase is for a 4K TV (NOT Gaming) but HTPC for watching movies, streaming, etc.. 
I have not purchased the TV yet so I cannot test the GT 710 I already have it is in another HTPC for 1080P movies.
 
Any information would be appreciated. 
Thanks.

    I went ahead and purchased 2 of these from EVGA B-Stock.

    I could not pass up on FREE shipping, and $19.99 ea. | $2.67 ea. after using EVGA Bucks. 
    I figure it's worth it even if it doesn't support the 4K TV, I've had these EVGA bucks a while now. 
     
    I'll post back here when, or If I ever get the 4K TV.
     
    BTW sorry for the double order..

    Your not going to like dropping the refresh rate to get that higher resolution 
              60Hz max out at 2560x1600
     
    Bottom line seems to be - the need for 30Hz or 24Hz for the higher resolution
              3840x2160 @ 30Hz
     
              4096x2160 @ 24Hz
     
    I'd Get a 1650 or better

    (excerpt)
    Resolutions at 60Hz max out at 2560x1600 for digital outputs and 2048x1536 via the VGA adapter, but you can setup up to 3840x2160 or even 4096x2160 over HDMI if you drop the refresh rate to 30Hz and 24Hz respectively. (You won't want to do that - it's possible but not recommended.)

    It depends on the media that you are watching. Older movies could be perfectly fine playing at 30fps or 24fps. I don't think it was until The Hobbit that movies started to show up at 60fps. Now days though some movies can be shot at up to 120fps.

    Use an Associates Code & SAVE 5% - 10% on your purchase. Just click on the associates banner to save, or enter the associates code at checkout on your next purchase. If you choose to use my code I want to personally say "Thank You" for using it.

    Thanks for the replies. It's appreciated.
     
    That review answered everything for the 710.
    30 fps will be fine and 24 has been fine in the past, but I've never had a 4K tv so I will probably upgrade the card soon. 
     
    According that Cnet link, the 730 will go 60HZ at full res?
    I think UHD TVs are 3840x2160 so 30FPS should be okay until I notice it.

    Yeah Nvidia is making some poor decisions lately about legacy products and customers.. 
    This will cause trust issues for people who bought a card, and then have 0 support whatsoever, not even a spec link.  
    I mean these things are still selling, it's not hurting them to keep legacy information. 
    They also botched their forums as well.. This is why I keep a lot of literature on my PC, I can't find any information anymore. 
    The idea of the internet was for Information. Now it's just for Subscriptions, Micro Transactions, and Shopping.
