Mini with dual mini displayport

[Monkeytech80]

Hi all, I'm starting my first adventure into the world of hackintosh.

So looking for my ideal build I want to replace my over specked mac-pro with a mini-hackintosh.
I just want it to do the basics on, WP, a bit of surfing no hard core gaming or editing.

Easy till the crux of the question. I've two 27" Cinema displays with mini display port connections I'd like to keep using if possible (for hard core excel-ing).
So is there a mini form factor motherboard that could run the dual display ports?

I'm not tied to mini-ITX or mATX, just the suggestions of your greater knowledge.

Thanks in advance.

Check out the new Pascal Quadro cards; Quadro P400 for example. Has 3 mDP ports in a low profile, single slot package. Any mITX case with a PCI slot should be compatible.

There's also the P600 and P1000 that are just as compatible. I'm using the P1000 in a Streacom F7C Alpha case.

Thanks for that, looking at your post it looks like the kind of build I'm looking at.
Any issues putting it together?

This was my first hackintosh build, but overall I ran into no issues. Specifically regarding the Quadro card, I installed the Nvidia Web Driver, shut down, insert the card, and reboot and it was good to go.
