[SOLVED] Can the Ryzen 3600 play 8k youtube videos?

Hey everyone. I have a Ryzen 3600 with 16GBs of Gskill RipJaws and a GTX 970 G1. My internet speed is good enough but I'm unable to stream 8K videos. Just wondering if it's a GPU or a CPU thing.

Max resolution supported by the 970 is 4096x2160, so 4k. In my limited knowledge I'd say you're limited by the gpu and not the CPU.

Thanks for your response man. I hope to move to an RTX card later this year.
