Hi there! I was considering getting a GTX 970 to build a living room "Steam machine". The model I am looking at is the Gigabyt

SLI GTX 970 ( different cards with different form factors) and SLI 970 for 4K gaming?

you really want SLI gtx 980's or CF r9 390's for 4k MINIMUM


if you intend to run decent settings and fps that is...


pre-builts are never worth it, build you own =)

I agree, as said above GTX 980 SLI or 390X CF is minimum if you want to have any detail at 4k. To put things in perspective, I have a system 6700K with SLI GTX980s through a 60" Samsung 4k and still cant run some of the newer games ultra/60. 4K takes a lot horsepower. However, in my den I have a system running a single R9 390x through an ACER 4k 28" It runs games pretty decent detail at 30fps.. Personally, a solid 30 is good for most games I play (RPGs) so it is a non issue hitting 60.
