its hard to run at medium on 1080p not to mention it will take a long time until the game is actually finished

dont waste your money and wait

[Khan Thompson]

I have 4 way sli gtx 780tis will that run it

I hope you plan on having several high powered graphics cards because Star Citizen will fuck your system a new hole...

4 way scaling is shitty. 

but here's a 28 inch Samsung 4K display http://www.amazon.com/dp/B00IEZGWI2/?tag=pcper04-20&tag=pcper04-20

Will my system run it http://au.pcpartpicker.com/p/3lau4 [

Not at 4k or 5760 x 1080 at high settings, you'll run out of vram

what will I have to do to run it at them

what will I have to do to run it at them

also how would I run out, each of the cards has 3g so would that not make it so I get 12 by having four?

How sorry if I'm wrong I'm new to the pc thing so I'm sorry I'm trying to get used to it

The $6,500 build with a few odd choices in components and not knowing how VRAM works threw me off a bit.

You'll need cards with more Vram (290's, titans or the upcoming 880's)

[Khan Thompson]

How ment titans will I need

All cards in an SLI array need to store all the data, so VRAM does not add up.  2x cards with 3GB each will still only have 3GB effective VRAM in total.

 

The best thing you can do to get good performance in 4K is wait for the next generation of graphics cards.  It's also better to wait for 4K monitors later this year or next year, as current input controllers used in monitors cannot handle a 4K image at 60FPS in a single large video stream, even using DisplayPort 1.2, so internally its basically set up as 2 displays side-by-side and uses DisplayPort's multi-stream capabilities to span the image across both displays.  This is all transparent from a user perspective but the internal dual-monitor setup does have an affect on GPU performance and consistency, so you'll get a better experience if you wait for newer 4K monitors with upgraded DisplayPort timing controllers, expected later this year.

 

In a few words, now isn't a good time to spend a lot of money on 4K.

Hey I think I know what I should do is there any G-sync monitors I could run in 1080p x3 ?

Or should I just buy diffrent cards (want nvida tho)

[iwasaperson]

Or should I just buy diffrent cards (want nvida tho)

So you don't have the computer, even though you said you did?

Why does it have to be nVidia?

Wait for the next generation of graphics cards.

G-Sync isn't currently supported in triple monitor setups (although it might in the future).

I will wait for 4k when  & at least when it becomes more affordable & more 4k content is released!
