I'm looking to get a 4K monitor. I have a Gtx 1080 and an Intel i7 6700K. Will I be able to run 4K games at decent frame rate.
 
Solution
I would say there isn't a single GPU suitable for 4K 60hz at max settings in all titles. That is why I am a big proponent of QHD and WQHD solutions instead. Resolution is still decent, and you are sacrificing very little to get higher frame rates.

I also don't think there is any 4K screen out there that I wouldn't have immediate buyer's remorse over as the next big thing came out.
