What Do I Need for the Best 4K Gaming Experience?

July 14, 2015 | By Hector

Amid the rising popularity of 4K resolution, this is becoming an increasingly common question. Originating with digital cameras back in 2003, this ultra-sharp resolution is one of the biggest developments in gaming, offering more pixels than even ultra high definition (UHD) – 4,000 p. horizontal versus 3,840 p. Talk about the ultimate immersive playing experience!

But as you can imagine, running a game in such an incredibly crisp resolution takes a lot of power. As a relatively new trend in the gaming world, 4K resolution remains extremely demanding for most hardware – even the highest-end graphic card will be greatly taxed at max settings and high frame-rates. With 8,294,400 pixels – about four times higher than most monitors – a graphics card running at 4K would have to work pretty hard.

Consider that while a single NVIDIA TITAN X graphics card is among the most powerful on the market, running most PC games well above 60 FPS at 4K would require at least a 3-WAY NVIDIA GeForce GTX TITAN X. While 4K is well worth this effort, the lack options on the market seems to make it nothing more than gamer’s pipedream.
