Would like help Designing a 4k Gaming Rig.

[boboru9934]

Ok First thing I need to know. I was going to just build a $2,000 Rig which would be plenty, then I started checking out 4k stuff, and thought that might be interesting.

Will my 55" LED 4k Ultra Samsung TV work with 4k gaming with 240hz Refresh?

Also What specifically as far RIG with Graphics do I need to achieve 4k gaming at?

If you can suggest or make a Build that can potentially do it, I would like to know!

And not with Triple Titan's or anything like that, I know that can.

But I am looking for at least the minimum of GPUs that can do it... Thanks alot (Prefer Nvidia Cards)

This should provide enough power for gaming. You could use SLI 770s as well, but i wouldn't recommend it.

Again, not really a fan of AMD's cards... Why not just go with an I7 4770k?

Also, That would do 4k Gaming ?

Wouldn't SLI'd GTX 760 4gb Cards Do it then if its about the Vram?

r9 280x ~300$ has similar performance as gtx 770 ~400$+

Also you never answered any of my other questions?

I asked If you would specifically Build a Rig that can handle 4k Gaming, and If my TV I got, will be fine for 4k gaming.

depends

i5 is similar to an i7 in gaming performance.

The 760 is a weak card compared to AMDs offerings.
