Hello all,
At the moment I'm thinking to a small PC or Steam Machine for in the living room, but I was wondering since I have a 80" TV (~2m) do I need a 'good' graphics card for it or not? Can anyone recomment a good graphics card for the 80" TV, so I can play games on it?

Indeed, for 1920x1080 it won't take a lot to play simple games. If you are talking triple A titles that have come out recently, then you would be looking at the $200 range.

4K tv is going to require some serious power, and there are only 3 GPUs to recommend, since TVs generally have HDMI ports. GTX970, GTX980, GTX Titan X. (If you don't need a lot of oomph, the GTX750 and 750Ti also work quite well for displaying in 4K)
