Build looks something like this so far.
i5 4460 (Debating the merits of the i7)
16gb DDR3 1600MHz
400W PSU
H97 ITX board.
250GB SSD
2 TB HDD (Considering 2 1TB HDD in Mirrored RAID for backup purposes)
GTX750Ti or GTX950 maybe?
Bitfenix Prodigy ITX Case (Thanks again TerrorFirmer)

Haswell(HD4200/HD5200) can do a 4k screen at 30Hz, Broadwell(HD5500/HD6200) can do a 4k screen at 60Hz and skylake(HD530) can drive three 4k screens at 60Hz.

If it's not 3d work, you don't specifically need a graphics card.
