Dual DisplayPort GPU?

Looking for a GPU with dual DisplayPort output to drive 2 x Dell P2419H monitors. Does such a beast exist? I don't do gaming, this is for office/everyday usage... so nothing fancy required. And if it did passive cooling as well, that would be even better....

I've had a quick look through the ones on OCUK and the lowest that have at least 2 DP outputs on them are not generally the cheapest, or passive. Personally I'd look at getting a card with 1 DP and 1 HDMI out and you would only then need an active HDMI to DP adapter (from what I understand it would need to be an active one for HDMI to DP - I don't really deal with adapters though) and could use a lower tier card - there are definitely versions of the GTX1050 and RX550 that have one DP & 1 HDMI, or an active (again I think you need an active one) DVI to DP adapter and go for a GT1030 or something. If not, the below are the cheapest on OC that seem to have 2 or more native DP outputs.

But the Radeon is total overkill if you just need a basic desktop card.

You can pick up an NVS 315 right now for a tenner and the splitter cable is the same amount. £20, job done :)
