"I'm about to build new with a 40" 4kTv serving as monitor duties, on the productive side it will be run as 4 separate monitors, with obviously gaming at full screen, so I'm also interested in both the ideal and the minimum spec for producing acceptable results for both CPU and GPU please?? I'll ideally be water cooling hardline too so also interested in potential sli options as opposed to a single higher spec card if costs work better ? at the moment the cost is fluid depending on the futureproofing/potential ceiling of lower-priced options.

So can people recommend both minimum and best case options for this build Whilst its primary use won't be for Gaming, I want to build a quality relatively futureproofed PC that will allow me to game as well a decent level rather than struggle but have no idea about the complication 4k adds to the occasion?

Thanks
 
Thanks for all the Replies guys, whilst not all for me, they're all relevant so a great help!
if I can muster the funds for a 1080Ti then I'd love to just from a longevity/futureproofing point of view but I might have to drop my custom water hopes to pay for it...

Failing that nice to know the SLi'd 1070's are fine and so potentially 1070i too?

My Grand plan having failed miserably to pick anything up over Black Friday period, was to score all the parts as bargains over the Boxing day sales/new year sales, However i've failed miserably at that too....

I did score a mega bargain couldn't refuse price on the Ps4 Pro with a couple'o'games and extra controller, but just havent found the time to search for Build parts :( It doesn't help that I'm also trying to stop myself blowing the budget on a Herman Miller Aeron Too as I loved it in JL, and suffer terribly with Sciatica at the moment as well as Arthritic knees (one replaced and one to go in 9 months time after the plate removal has healed) so The budget is well and truly getting stretched in all directions, so I havent bought anything as everything is a possability untill the finds start flowing out :P


Thanks again and anyone else who games successfully on a 40"+ Tv please feel free to tell you GPU/CPU set-up :)

Cheers
