I have been googling for a work pc (small formfactor if possible.) That can use two 4k displays. The PC will only be used for office applications, and for the most part over a virtual desktop.

I haven't had much luck, so am not sure such a min PC exists.

Any SFF with two Displayport outputs and a skylake or kabylake intel CPU.

If you want a business computer something like the Precision Tower 3000 small form factor from dell for ~$700 would do it.

Though there are other options out there.

Yup that would work, you would need to use displayport however, and since it only has a single displayport output you would need to use a USB type-C to Displayport cable and use the USB type-C port as a Displayport using the USB type-C alternate mode.

But assuming you have displayport monitors and the proper cables, it would probably be the smallest footprint computer that can easily handle dual 4k desktop use.

I've seen reports of issues with users running 4k60hz on DP and HDMI 2.0 at the same time using the Intel HD530. I assumed it would be a similar issue with the Iris pro 580. But I could be mistaken.

It can be avoided by using displayport as I mentioned however.
