Imac mid 2011 (4k it's possible?)

[Abne1]

Hello, I hope you are well, I wanted to ask if it is possible to upgrade the gpu(k610m) of an imac mid 2011 can support 4k resolutions at 60hz.

The gpu have 4k resolution, https://manualzz.com/doc/2885508/hp-d7z20av-nvidia-quadro-k610m-1gb-graphics-card-datasheet

The Quadro K610M supports DisplayPort 1.2 (HBR2) and can do 4K at 60 Hz, however, the iMac's Light Ridge Thunderbolt 1 controller which the video signal always passes through only supports DisplayPort 1.1 (HBR), which limits you to 4K at ≈41 Hz when using custom CVT-RB timings (360 MHz pixel clock limit) or 4K at 30 Hz using standard CVT-RB (262.75 MHz pixel clock) or HDMI timings (297 MHz pixel clock).

Agradecido por su respuesta, creo que 30hz es más que suficiente considerando que es un dispositivo antiguo. ¿Entonces el máximo teórico es 4k a 41hz?

You'd have to see/experience 30 Hz yourself to know if it's sufficient for you or not. (For me, it's not.) The theoretical maximum is 4K at 41 Hz (using CVT-RB timings) because DisplayPort 1.1 has a 360 MHz pixel clock limit at 8bpc RGB (288 MHz at 10bpc RGB).
