My friend has a new 4k monitor 60hz max. He will need a new GPU.

you have to go back veddit

>>62268046
He should of course buy AMD if he already has a freesync monitor. Otherwise go with Nvidia.

Yes.

a 480 doing 4k@60FPS? ha, wow..

Right now only 1080 Ti and the Vega 64 can hit 4k@60. Barely.... I would wait a one more generation before going 4k@60.

>>62268511
what about non-gaming at 60hz 4k

>>62268610
Intel can do that shit since 2012...

>>62268630
not at all

>>62268046
If the monitor has free-sync you should be trying to pick up Vega 56/64 at MSRP

>>62268511
In DOOM with Vulkan on Ultra at 4k, a 480 does about 40fps, it's pretty nuts

>>62268649
My bad, 2013...

TIL 40 == 60.. THANKS ANON!

>>62268833
That's on ULTRA, tweak the settings a bit and you have 60fps easily,

>>62268814
theory and practice, doesn't run smooth

>>62268046
The 1080Ti is the idea 4K card but unfortunately Nvidia fucking sucks and won't support Freesync, so a 4K monitor with adaptive sync will run you close to $1k

>>62268046
Nvidia dont work on freesync.

>>62268927
Nvidia (GPUs) definitely work if you connect a freesync (monitor).

>>62268937
You will be able to use it as a regular monitor, Freesync will not work because Nvidia refuses to support the feature.

>>62268937
no they dont
they use their own Gsync which is not the same as freesync monitor.

>>62268962
No, this dude is correct. >>62268959
The GPU will absolutely still work, freesync won't work tohugh.

>>62268978
whats the point paying extra for freesync if you cant benefit the feature?

>>62269004
Why are you asking me? I don't have an answer to that. Maybe because you're planning on benefitting from it in the future? Because it's the cheapest version because there's no freesyncless version? Depends on a lot of shit.

>>62269017
dude you are seriously mentally challenged.
good luck

>>62268511
>a 480
XFX480 is not just a 480
I feel you just replied without looking into the post

>>62268720
Also that's doom. It's gonna be like skyrim in a few years, be able to run it on your microwave

>>62269004
Free-sync doesn't cost extra, least not like G-sync

>>62269082
Isn't skyrim still a horribly optimized piece of trash?

DOOM is a modern marvel of an engine, Quake uses the same or a similar one I think.

>>62269198
It is, but the point is doom runs well on anything

>>62268046
>4K monitor
Tell him he's retarded

The productivity boost of having a 28"+ 4K screen is incredible, even compared to dual 1080s. A good tiling manager really helps too when you have a lot of reference material open too

>>62269300
Keep telling yourself that

My old ass i5 can do 4k at 60 when shitposting or light productivity.

>>62269080
I have an xfx 390...double dissapointment edition or something. ....what's special about xfx?

>>62269300
28 inch at 4k also requires a pair of binocular's or to mount the monitor directly to your face.

>>62269004
Most 1440p/144hz monitors are freesync or gsync now anyway, its difficult to find a vanilla gaming monitor besides cheap Korean shit.

>>62270166
Or use display scaling...
