I notice that Tom's complains that 4k gaming resolution frame rates aren't playable unless you get two cards and crossfire/SLI them.

Then I notice in the benchmarks, AA is turned on.

Then I think, if you're playing at 4k, YOU DON'T NEED AA.

Then I think, hey, maybe these games actually ARE playable if you turn off AA!

the benchmarks are shown because thats what people run at 1080p/1440p. it gives you an idea of performance scaling.

i agree, at 4k no hardware aa should be needed. aa will become a thing of the past with newer much more performance friendly software based aa mutures. for 4k, alternatives should be used like fxaa or smaa to free up huge amounts of vram and give the most fps possible.
