Good afternoon all,

I have been lurking around for a while and decided to sign up hoping to improve my knowledge about computers and share my passion for gaming.

Didn't really want to start with a question but, here it goes. I am going to be renovating the ground floor and third bedroom of my house starting in August and we/she has decided that in order to have or bigger kitchen that the man cave is temporarily destroyed until I can be bothered to build a shed/outbuilding. Which leads me to my question...I want a new computer but I have nowhere to put a setup, I was thinking of linking the computer to my 55" 4k tv, now; I know this isn't ideal but what sort of results would I get if I had a £1000ish gaming rig running through the tv? I can't find much info on the web about it. Can anyone help me spec a system that will be capable of handling my needs (listed below).

Run on a 4k tv without looking *****
Run fallout 4 and games a like in ultra
Be able to run poker clients with memory heavy tracking programs
Be nice to look at.

Many thanks
 
you need to find out what connections the 4k tv has
it needs either hdmi2.0 or a displayport to make it worth hooking up

most dont have a displayport but you might be lucky i duno!

once you find that out then you can start :)

The TV will have HDMI 2.0, the only TV's I found with a displyport are panasonic and $$$$$$
 
right but my guess was you already had the tv so i was wondering what it had

if you want to run at 4k the 280x wont do it, there's meant to be adapters coming but right now it will only do 30hz
its not powerful enough for most games either

you looking at a 980ti for 4k
thats a lot of your budget
i think you will be over budget^^;
 
Thank you for your responses.

What if I dropped the gaming element of the rig and just needed to run on the 4k tv for the poker side of things and perform everyday tasks? emails, office, skype, etc?

Sorry about the questions a bit new to all this.

Thanks.
