The best 4K games you've played?

Another shout for Mad Max. Looks pretty stunning.

Total War Attilla, again looks stunning and Company of Heroes 2.

I keep threatening to load up Alien Isolation or Outlast but im a bit of a fanny where games like that are concerned :D

Stalker series, old games now and not the best example for 4K but 4K can give a few older games a new lease of life.

Thanks for that.

I've got Stalker. I'm sure, I remember buying it... but it isn't on Steam, maybe GoG, will check. I can imagine that looking good.

Yeah, I think Mad Max I'm starting today, Metal Gear Solid after I've completed a couple more games, I'm starting to feel like I'm getting my monies worth for all the games I paid for and never played.

I've got Wolfenstein: Old Blood too which I will complete, sounds interesting.

Alien Isolation...Games do not scare me for some reason, but Alien Isolation I read outstays its welcome, it's supposed to go on too long, and an FPS where you are sneaking about just doesn't appeal to me. But I've downloaded it to see what it looks like, maybe I will play it.

I got quite far in Outlast, then got stuck I think, my give it a blast, I was sort of enjoying that.

The RTS games you've mentioned, I've got COH 2 but not that Total War. Is the graphics in that a level above Total War: Empire?

I would say the graphics are a step up on Total War. What makes it worthwhile for me is that real estate as well. I have gone from 27" 2560 x 1440 to 40" 4K

GTA5 was the best looking game in 4k so far :-)

Literally just completed that before my 4k setup unfortunately. The multiplayer sounds like it's full of Mikes son type people.

Had 4k about 2 weeks and completed 2 pretty lengthy games, Wolfenstein is pretty long for a FPS, as there's quite a lot of looking around for collectables, like Tomb Raider, which I will return to as it will be interesting on the Island after I've completely wiped out all the villains(I think)!

Still undecided what's next... Witcher 3 at this point is top of my list, will play through GTA V story again, it's so entertaining.
 
Out of interest what framerates are you guys getting with one 980ti on gta v @ 4k? I'm tempted to go 4k but I always hear the same old "one gpu isn't enough." Reviews and benchmarks online are all over the shop; some show average fps in the twenties while others show double that. I wouldn't be using any AA in 4k but would like details as high as possible

Both shots corrupted, can you delete please? It isn't about posting screenshots, I can look at YouTube in 4K for that.

Christ bud chill, the guy is just trying to help:rolleyes:


Sean difference looks ace, so much cleaner.

As for games, Project Cars, TW3, Ethan Carter, Bf4 also looks great playing through the SP.

Not sure actually, just reinstalled Windows 8.1 so haven't downloaded it yet. But will let you know. It was defo fantastic on my card and g-sync monitor setup, but will get stats for you, will download tonight.

My one card solution along with my G-Sync monitor has handled everything I've thron at it except Metro 2033 Redux on Very high, reduced to high and its solid, I just think it's badly optimized as Farcry 4 looks twice as good and I get max out of that.

Metal Gear Solid V and Mad Max can play max without issue.

Tomb Raider I played on Ultimate and was amazing. Probably the most impressive title so far.

Wolfenstein maxed out too.

yes two 980Ti`s are really needed for 4K Unfortunately, maybe the next generation could possibly do it with one GPU but I expect nvidia will charge small fortune for it. :rolleyes:

Your card with a g-sync monitor would be good enough. I have the AMP Extreme which is the most powerful 980ti available off the shelf to my knowledge, but G-Synce monitor tech is amazing. Turn FRAPS off and just play the game as if it's a console game and you'll love it. G-Sync adds at least 20FPS to what FRAPS shows you, so you cannot get reliable stats. You have to experience it. No need for AA and V-SYNC needs to be turned off, that frees up performance straight away.

Not true, I am a single card user and can play the vast amount of current and past games maxed out in 4K fluidly. The G-Sync monitor is the key.

:rolleyes: love it when idiots do that.

His pictures didn't display properly at first, and I really do think posting comments is the most constructive way to talk about this topic.
 
Mad Max runs very well, so you should find it running smoothly at 4k even with a single 980ti. Great looking and fun game too.

no m8 i have the samsung 4k https://www.overclockers.co.uk/showproduct.php?prodid=MO-204-SA&groupid=17&catid=1895


i just re-installed crysis 3 had to turn some bits down to make it smooth

I see. Got that installed, turned off AA, and blur and v-sync. Everything max, framerates from 30-45, doesn't sounds that good but on a g-sync monitor it looks like it's running @ 60FPS, super smooth.

I wasn't using FRAPS until someone on here asked specifically what framerates I was getting, but anything from 30FPS look at least 50-60FPS on a g-sync monitor, it's incredible. If it didn't look that good I would turn the settings down too.

It seems the ports we're getting are very high quality, and not that system intensive. Metal Gear Solid V is not demanding either.
