Does OptiPlex 7050 SFF supports dual 4K monitors at 60Hz?
I'm about to buy a OptiPlex 7050 SFF. I'll include in the configuration an additional display port 1.2. With 2 DP ports in total I'll be able to use 2 Dell P2715Q with 3840 x 2160 resolution at 60Hz ?
Thanks in advance.

Thanks for you response.
I'm sorry, my bad, isn't the SSF model, but the Micro model which leads me to a more terrible path because you can't add a discrete gpu on the Micro model. Even with 2 DP 1.2 ports won't support 2x 4k 60Hz? What's the max resolution I can achieve with the 7050 Micro integrated graphics considering dual displays?

Depends on what video card you order. That controls the resolution. The monitor can display the resolution up to that high res, but the card has to support it too. That model has integrated graphics as the default which are limited so be sure to order one of the available upgrades video cards when placing an order. Check the specs of the 2 offered--.

You need at least 3 gig of Video ram for dual 4k display. Onboard intel doesn't keep more than 1.5 gigs reserved or stolen from system ram. 4k would be 30hz not 60hz based on the bandwidth. For years now 1080p (1920x1080) displays have been the norm for both televisions and computers. 3840x2160 @ 30Hz .
4k web browsing tests show using as much as 1260MB of video memory PER display.
