What kind of gaming? And don't expect anything less than $700-800 dollars (or whatever that translates to in sweden) . Minimum. (Unless you buy used)

i would get a reference design cooler card for the top GPU and a dual fan third party (which ever you like the most) for the bottom card.

For me personaly i would go with the GTX 970 MSI twinfrozr V gaming for the bottom card and the cheapest reference design card for the top slot.

Bf4 4k on ultra and IF POSSIBLE %200 red from supersampling

Going to use this for gaming

Actually not using a custom build using asus rog g30-ab

Hope you dont take my location as offense as many people do but turkey

you are not realising that 4K is 4 times the pixel pushing required for 1080P...you are not gonna comme even close to sclling BF4 at 200% 4K....you will be able to play on high at 50FPS no AA 100% scalling...(AA not required for 4k resolution anyway)

You will not even be able to play many games on highest settings at 40FPS...crysis 3 will run at around 30FPS, metro LL 25FPS average...tests have been made with titan blacks in SLI (which are about 12% better than a 970) and they where not able to old 40FPS on high (not ultra)

It's still early to think about 4K gaming, current hardware can't really do it as of now...maybe dual 980 highly overclocked would run the most demanding modern games at 4K relatively well...but not even at 60FPS

 

Give that a listen, pretty humbling (3:01 for beginning of benchmarks):

 

Bioshock infinite 4K 780ti SLI minimum FPS: 14 ;)

Metro Last light: 7

The brands just modify the physical card and often the clock speed, its still the same card just quieter faster and better looking than the refrence card. so its up to your budget as to which you can afford and what you need/prefer

 

as for the monitor idk

Lets say that i dont scale %200 and go ultra on 4k how much fps would i get?my battery is dieing so i cant reply for 30Mins

35-40FPS no AA ultra settings 100% scalling.

Also be advised that the 4K monitor that you see that are at a reasonable price are 30HZ refresh rate monitor so they do 30FPS max...if you want a 60HZ 4K display you'll have to have deep pocket.

i'd suggest instead that you look for a good quality 144hz 1440P monitor like the asus rog swift.

On this you'll be able to get 60FPS on ULTRA at BF4 with GTX 970 SLI...100% scalling.

1. The Gigabyte G1s look to be the best so far, as of this very moment i would grab those.

2. I would leave the 4k monitors alone and get a Gsync monitor instead if my GPU is a Nvidia GPU like or like if i have the extra money.
