As you can see, it’s still early days for 4K gaming, but the mighty GTX980TI is capable of pushing that many pixels up to a perfectly playable 40+ FPS. If 1080p is just fine for you, the budget-minded GTX950 is good to go, and if you’re looking for a sweet spot in the middle, the GTX970 can push 50+ FPS at 1440p.
