[raj maan]

Hello, I am new on this forum

24 GB Ram
SAMSUNG SSD 250GB 840 Series
Seagate 2TB Green
Seagate 2TB Green
Zebronics 600watt PSU

I want to upgrade my system for 4K Footage
I need your Suggestions

[Flyguygamer]

780Ti or 290x

Doing what with 4k?
Editing? Playing 4k games?

[voaz]

i7 4770K, R9 290x/GTX 780Ti or Titan.

With that ram i would say editing?

 

 

Cpu, maybe but its hard to say, they havent improved too much since then. 

 

PSU, never heard of that brand, get an antec or seasonic.

 

And a card with massive amounts of Vram. 3gb wont cut it. im thinking 6gb might be what you need but i could be wrong. I would say. 7990 or titan. Ebay has titans a little cheaper than some stores. 

 

Besides that everything is all set.

Can't really assume, one of my friends has the same amount and he just plays games. He likes knowing he has the maxed out best.

He wants 3 780Ti's in SLI for his next build and 64gb of RAM. So. It happens.

 

I agree with the rest.

If you're playing 4k games, it's gotta be at minimum 290's in CrossFire.

Hey man!

 

I've got an incredibly similar build, right down to the same mobo, ram and cpu. So, I'll suggest what I'm planning to do with my build atm;

 

My basic plan is to upgrade my 560ti's for a 4GB 770 or maybe a 780ti. Then I also plan to WC at some point, maybe before I leave this build and jump to a Haswell-E later next year. I'd probably end up moving the upgraded GPU and storage, maybe the RAM, but I'd probably get new RAM.

 

So, that's my recommendation then, 770 4GB, 290 or a 780TI.

If its just for video playback I think most GPUs would be able to handle it.

 

One thing I would recommend doing is swapping out that PSU when you do pick up one. They aren't the best quality, I wouldnt want to put too much load on it.

You can also wait for 5930K and X99 motherboard but that will be around the end of 2014 and you will have to upgrade your ram possibly because it's DDR4.

Would you try Quadro? They are made to edit video I think, I actaully know nothing about Quadro cards.

I wouldn't get a gtx 780 for 4k. at least one 290 or 290x because they have 4gb of ram 

also, I'd get an fx 8320+ an aio cooler. anyway, you won't probably agree with me but this is what I'd get:

[Le Reaper]

I'd throw in a high end GPU (780/290x).

[pspfreak]

If you do CUDA, be sure to get an nvidia card.

[raj maan]

Ya i'll be with Nvidia only coz editing need more n more CUDA.

[WoodenMarker]

Editing what?

What currency?

What are you doing that needs cuda?

More and more content creation programs are moving towards opencl instead of cuda.
