Hopefully I am not repeating a ? raised a few times before :( but am thinking of moving to a 4k Monitor from current 1440 and am not sure if 7950 crossfire is powerful enough to run such smoothly.
Would appreciate thoughts and if anyone has tried/is using would be grateful for 'user' comments :)
 
highly doubt it, titan's run it Ok to good

the 7950 are 3gb cards? i forget.

put this way no way on ultra.(everything maxed including AA)
 
You will have to turn the settings down to get it smooth. AA is less of a requirement at such a high res so scrap that straight away.

Do your 7950s support the DP connection required?

2 x Mini DP connections - Am currently using one with mini-dp to DP (monitor) cable.
It is my understanding that the spec for mini dp is , apart from size, identical to dp. so hopefully not an issue and can run at 60.
 
7950s are ok for 4k. Recommend getting a third cheap though. Don't use AA at all and you will still be able to go mostly ultra settings but you'll run out of vram on watch dogs ultra so just go high on that for textures. You have enough grunt of 45-50fps in most games as long as you use zero zilch nada antialiasing.
