I get co many conflicting answers on this... but what is the minimum amd or nvidia cards that are "ok" for 4k gaming? I am not likely to even 4k game, but I bought a 1070 ti and supposedly newer cards are better for 4k gaming and I am trying to future proof just in case...

Someone said get 5700xt instead of 2070 or 2070 super.... but also aren't amd cards hotter and louder?

You are kidding, 300 FPS and 310 FPS makes SO much difference on my 60hz screen!

Good deal. There were 7 sapphire 5600 xt's on ebay yesterday as well for 259. Ended up snagging that instead, otherwise i would've bit on this.

any chance Amazon will price-match? Newegg has really slow shipping speeds.

there's nothing to define because I haven't done it before and am just trying to be sure if I do decide to play a game in 4k settings it won't be a disaster. if I did play one it would likely be a casual or adventure game, though, not a fps.

5700 XT is a roughly 20-22% faster and is 8gb compared to this one with 6gb.

Its not worth the extra $100 for the 5700xt to be only 20% faster. Probably won't notice the difference. This card will still last 4-5 years.

He means more like are you good with 30 FPS or do you need 60? Do you turn everything to ultra or are you ok with medium graphics settings. 4K gaming is very intensive though I would say you need at least a 2070/1080 equivalent to comfortably play AAA titles at decent graphics settings and frame rates. Even then for newer graphics intensive games you might have to turn some settings down.
