4k question

yes and ... I dunno. 

As for 4K video playback, at a reasonable bitrate it can play back 4K resolution videos (easily). Upscaling is not super useful though. Sure, it can play a 1080p game and display it fullscreen on a 4K screen, but it will still look like a 1080p game.

Can the gtx 1050ti playback video at 4k? And upscale games like the xbox one S can?

Upscaling is dependent on your monitor and its settings. You need a 4K monitor (obviously) but you can send it a 1080p signal and either have the GPU or the display upscale it.

 

It won't look prettier though.

I have a blog! And a list of guides I've posted
