Hi,
i buying a gtx 1070 because i can't afford a 1080. just wondering if it is capable of handling 1440P and 4K gaming.

Thanks

With GTX1070 you would be able to play any old and modern games at high settings:

-Killer at 1080P
-very good at 1440P
-good at 4K as well, not the best, but playable in most cases, depending on the game tipe.
In my case very happy with the GTX1070 performance at 1080P with all setings at very very high in any game.

1440p is an easy resolution for gtx 1070,but 4k is another tale,it can run modern games at 4k but with lower settings and even then most of the time you will get lower fps than 60.

Imo if 1080p is not enough for you,then go with 1440p, is well balanced between full hd and 4k and its requirements are not that extremely high like 4k.

It is good it's just not the best for 4k gaming! 1080p is still good so I don't think you need to play games in 4k.

It can run many modern games with high settings but I see some people having problems with the new 10-series, not much people so you don't have to worry about that.
