GTX 1070 4k?

2MRenoeht · Jan 28, 2017

I don't want to play at 30 fps. I much prefer 60 fps. I know that probably means playing at 1440p? Would another GTX 1070 get the job done? 1440p just looks blurry to me after seeing 4K. What about upgrading to a GTX 1080? A GTX 1080 is really my only single card option because the Titan X(Pascal) is not affordable. Should I wait for the GTX 1080 ti and hope I'll be able to afford it?

I want to be able to play at 4K high settings at least and get 60 fps or at least close to it.

If the Titan XP is not affordable, then the options you have are pretty much what you've stated: SLI 1070s, if you're ABSOLUTELY looking at 60FPS then SLI 1080s (a single 1080 will not achieve a steady 60FPS in 4k), or waiting for the 1080Ti to come out and looking at the benchmarks for that. The Titan XP is barely hitting 60FPS as a single card solution in 4k games. That said--it is hitting 60FPS at 4k in games, but it's very close on the line to not.

Lol it really depends on the game. For example ultra gta v u get like 55fps (msaa off adnvaced off) and it looks good but in watch dogs 2rest in 24fps

(5760x1080 gtx 1070 personal experience). But on watch dogs i had extra details on 100% and pixel scale to 1.25 (cant look decent otherwise)

I think GTX 1070's in SLI would do the best for me but I'm not sure about SLI because it looks like most of the new games don't support it. BUT for 90% of those games you can create an sli profile and get it working.

genthug · Jan 28, 2017

Well, that's the issue and the risk you take with SLI. It's hit or miss in the engine how well the scaling goes, and it's hit or miss whether the specific game will support it.

Genthug what are oc clock speeds on the 1070? (core/memory)

genthug · Jan 30, 2017

For mine I have +160 on the core, +350 on the memory. Running at ~2075MHz core ~4350MHz memory. Pascal cards are fairly cookie cutter when it comes to overclocking due to GPU boost 3.0.

Mine a bit lower. Rip

Well I thought I'd update you guys. I got sli 1070's and it's awesome. Every game I've played has ran really well at 4K. Some games needed me to run Nvidia profile inspector in order for them to run right in sli. So far it's just absolutely amazing.

can u compare gta v x1 1070 vs 2x1070's?

stavrosmast :

2017-02-12 12:06:39 - GTA5 GTX 1070
Frames: 2849 - Time: 60000ms - Avg: 47.483 - Min: 43 - Max: 52

2017-02-12 12:12:45 - GTA5 SLI GTX 1070
Frames: 4924 - Time: 60000ms - Avg: 82.067 - Min: 55 - Max: 98

Seems pretty good

stavrosmast · Feb 14, 2017

but the min not being 60 is kinda triggering

DSzymborski · Feb 14, 2017

If even brief *minimums* below 60 fps at 4K are triggering, you're going to either need a much larger budget or patience for a few years. We are still very early in the 4K era.

stavrosmast · Feb 14, 2017

I mean..... the minimum difference is 10fps but the max fps difference is 50fps. thats what i meant annoying

Farmageddon · Jun 6, 2018

I feel that with a 1070 you can achieve 60 fps without sacrificing to much in 4k. I can get 50 fps 4k with 1070 ftw 2 15 7600k with just turning off hairworks.

stavrosmast · Jun 24, 2018

I got my 1440p 144hz g sync 1ms display.. I think its the perfectly balanced solution.. still too early for 4k..
