I saw a test between a gtx 680 and hd 7970 are there any other 4K ready ?

I bought one GeForce GTX 780 Dual Classified 3GB PCI-E w/ ACX Cooler and it does not looks to be 4k ready.
What would you do sell it and buy another one?

I just bought an un50hu8550 and I want to play games on it. 4K is out and 8K is next.

So are the 680 or 7970 my only options?

im going to guess your looking at one of these new inexpensive 4k tv's, not a $3500 sony or samsung etc.

these seiki etc cheap ones for $500 are great tv's, they are beautiful, absolutely gorgeous. but keep in mind they are limited to 30hz which is 30fps. for bluray or computer 4k media files, this works fine, but for gaming, your going to be capped at 30fps which is less than ideal.

ive been debating on using a 39" for a static desktop, video, picture viewing monitor used in conjunction with my 27" 1440p monitor as the gaming monitor.
2 evga 780 classifieds in sli will handle any game made maxed out at 4k using fxaa, crysis 3, battelfield 4, assassins creed 4, etc. and hold above 40fps.

if you mean 4k ready as in they can push an image or video to a 4k monitor... i believe all current cards above the gtx 650 ti and amd 7750 can do it at 60hz... a couple under can do it at 30hz. any nvidia gtx7xx or amd r7 r9 card can do it at 60hz.
