I want a new gpu for 4k 120. Currently rocking the gtx 950 and i7 950 and its inadequate. Should I just suck it up and wait for 2080 ti at this point?

"4k 120" isn't even an actual thing yet due to DP/HDMI throughput limitations that'll be solved by future revisions

Just buy vega, you nigger faggot

Yes. You won't get 4k 120 even on Titan sli so you'll have to wait.

The 1080Ti is really just barely past the point of being adequate for 4K60 and the first version of Volta won't even be 2x as fast as it.

Also this

vega is doa

Hdmi 2.1 just came out didn't it?

no, they just decided on specs and published them for now, it'll still be some time until anything comes out with it onboard

what about 4k 120 on low instead of ultra?

There are no 4K 120Hz monitors. "2080 Ti" probably won't even come out in 2018.

4K 144Hz monitors will come out next year, the most plausible system to push high FPS at 4K in 2018 (note: likely not 144FPS locked anyway) will be Volta SLI, i.e. "GTX 2080" SLI.

The specification, not actual products with HDMI 2.1. The 4K 144Hz monitors are going to be using DP1.4 AFAIK and even that's not actually enough bandwidth, supposedly you'll have to drop to 4:2:2/4:2:0/drop 10b and HDR, etc.

That's pointless, why even play at 4K if not for the image quality? What's the point of high res if you're rendering ugly shit anyway?

Ryzen 2 around 2019 or 2018 Q4 Intel 8 core, plus nvidia volta 2080ti maybe 2018 Q3.

ugly is relative, user.

I own a 1080Ti and I could definitely run some games at 4K120 by changing settings if there were displays that supported the right interface for it. Technically the 1080Ti has support for DisplayPort 1.4 but when I bought my 4K monitor I don't remember seeing any monitors that were DisplayPort 1.4, mine was 1.2 with G-Sync.

Eh, sure, but I've been playing games at 4K for nearly 2 years and I don't see what it could bring if you have to drop to low settings. 4K brings sharpness and drastically reduces aliasing on high-DPI screens, that's it.

I recently picked up a Samsung Odyssey HMD with a 2880x3200 90FPS display. Think the 2060 or whatever the budget Volta card is will be able to maintain a solid 90FPS at that resolution? I'm running an RX 460 right now and it's not cutting it for most games.

Er, 2880x1600 display.

Wait for Nvidia Volta or Ampere

Dude. My 1080ti chokes in 4k. I would much rather play 1440p 100fps+

There are no true 4k cards yet.

All the benchmarks says it can get 4k 60. Hell, even an Xbox One X can do that.

An XBOX ONE X

>a console can run games on PC eqiv of high at 1080p30fps let alone 4k

Are you a brainlet or trolling?

have you been living under a rock or something?

>My 1080ti chokes in 4k.
And what games are you playing and at what settings? Only games I've had trouble running at 60fps are Quantum Break and Deus Ex Mankind Divided.

4k gaming is just stupid right now, absolutely stupid. 1440 @ 144Hz+ with adaptive sync is where it's at. Most games aren't wallpaper slideshows they have movement, often a lot of it and often very fast movement.

not enough pixels. On 1080p and 1440p I can see the pixels and that sucks.

>even an Xbox One X can do that.
In one game, a sim racer with baked lighting

only if you:
- use too large a display for the res
- disable all AA
- sit and stare autistically at a screen shot

60Hz looks like shit at all times other than still frames

all indirect lightning in games is baked.
