been trying to find something from amd to power 4k but first question is freesynch all that worth getiing amd cards? am using onboard intel i5 graphics at moment.

also i dont see as where amd has many choices for the now until vega comes out. is free synch all that worth it as a nvidia 1070 really looks tempting but then id be paying out the nose for 4k gsynch wich i prolly cant wont afford.

so whats the best amd option and does freesynch all that worth it

Freesync is fantastic, and would be especially important at 4k (though for gaming I still think 1440p, 144hz is the sweet spot)......but you're right, there isn't a 4k AMD card right now. The only one that's really fully capable of that now is the Titan Xp (with any sort of shelf-life at that resolution)....at least in my opinion.

a 1070 is a good 1440p card


nothing short of a titan XP for 4k

and even then you need two cards in sli
