I'm about to buy the GTX 1070 for 4k gaming

[sangoker]

So i decide to buy the gtx1070 for 4K gameplay
allready know the monitor i will get
The only question i have
I saw alot of motherboards they have a support of 4096X2304 resolution on only 24Hz
And not 60Hz
The question i have ,should i worry about that?
Cuz i remember that i suppose to connect the monitor to the GPU by HDMI or displayPort
and the GPU support the 2160p resolution on 60Hz
But i don't know what gonna happened if i will get a basic motherboard with maybe option for OC , will make my games run only on 24Hz ,in 4K ?
thank you very much

Well once you get the GPU, the video output for the motherboard will not matter since the GPU will handle video going forward. Don't expect max settings in 4K when using the 1070. I would recommend low to med settings.

The motherboard graphics support only matters if you are using the onboard graphics, which you aren't.
You want to use Display Port for 4K.

I am running a GTX 980ti on ASrock Z170 Pro4 and get decent frame rates on 4K, all of them above 30.

Ok thank you for your responed
Someone can recomend to me a good motherboard? I maybe do overclocked as well
I got the i7 6700k gtx1070 and i will put 16GB ram DDR4 3000Mhz 2X8GB
By budget 120$ but if not necessary it's better less
And if he have a WIFI build in will be great

I have the Asrock Z170 Pro4 with that same processor and like it, it has some nice features (m.2 port, USB3.0, 6 SATA III connections) and is within your budget. Doesn't have built in WiFi but an addon card isn't expensive.

Have you done your research on benchmarks for a 1070 at 4k. Personally I wouldn't use a 1070, its just not strong enough. I'd rather 1440p at very high to max settings at a stable 60fps than medium to high settings at 30-60 fps @ 4k
