Hi there. I have a four year old computer, and I feel like I spent too much money on the other components than the graphics card, like the 16 gig of ram. So I was wondering if my rig's components, other than the graphics card, are fit for 4k gaming? I just bought a 40 " pc monitor, so it would be nice to try out. Also, I would like better performance on 1080p gaming. games like GTA 5 and Assassins creed Unity runs miserably.

So if your answer is "upgrade your graphics card", should I go for the Titan x or run two GTX 980 ti in SLI?

Specs:
ASUS Crosshair V Formula, Socket-AM3+
Corsair SSD Force Series GT 60GB 2.5"
Cooler Master HAF 922 Midi Tower Black
XFX Radeon HD 6950 2GB GDDR5 "Dual Fan"
AMD Phenom II X6 1100T Black Edition
Corsair HX 850W PSU
Corsair Vengeance DDR3 1600MHz 16GB CL9
3x Seagate Barracuda® 7200.12 1TB (Which run in RAID 0)

Thank you so much for any helpful replies.

The only problem I see is with the GPU. Upgrade that to a GTX 980 Ti.

Otherwise the only other thing you really need is a nice huge overclock.
