My computer has an i7 4770k, 16gb 1866mhz ram, and an Asus GTX 780. I'm curious to see how smooth my computer would run 4k on let's say Battlefield 4. If you have a 780 running 4k please let me know how it looks and what kind of FPS you get. Hopefully I don't have to get another 780.

Yup, do not underestimate 4k, or it'll bite you back and cost you quite a lot of $ to get it stable again :) I have ran 4k before with a single 780, but it wasn't enough, well it was enough for maybe some old games, but when there are too many things/details on my screen, I start to lag and can't play until I look and turn to somewhere that has less details. My systems were getting kinda hot, near 80C every time I run 4k, most people probably think that's a normal temperature, but I prefer my systems super cooled, and so I have overkilled 4k 😀 Now I can run it without any problems. But unless you are willing to spend $3000+, then don't go for 4k yet. I have spent near $10,000 for this, so do be careful when you are ready for 4k :)
