Yes a 3ghz i5 6300 doesn't have the best single core performance either, considering the others in the graph are running at 4Ghz or more lol. Once the CPU is overclocked to 4+GHz which is what it's made to do.. it crushes everything. This is the fastest CPU in the world! 6950X

The 6950X is a great CPU but, the 5960X at 4.5Ghz is faster by about 12-15% This is however comparing a, "4.5Ghz" overclocked 5960X, to a "3.0Ghz" stock 6950X. Also, single thread performance running 1 core, at the same 3ghz on each CPU. The 5960X was actually slightly faster. And higher fps...

The Zotac GTX 1080 Mini is great! If they can put (2) desktop GTX 1080's in a slap top. Then they can make a smaller standard GTX 1080. Lian Like makes a Mini ITX case that is, 10 x 9.5 x 6.5. It's a tiny thing Before, you had to go low end, or mid range graphics power to accommodate this...

The GTX 1070 is blazing! It would be great for 4K with no AA turned on, and of course, it needs to be overclocked to death. Once it is overclocked to death though, it performs just a little slower than a GTX 1080 at stock speeds! Which seems to average great playable fps at 4K . I'm glad to...

A 4960X, or 3960x, 3970X are all still very viable options! Especially at 4.8Ghz lol. No upgrade is needed as of right now. Same thing with broadwell-E too. My 4960X at 4.85Ghz is just killing it. The newer chips perform slightly better but they slowly overclock worse and worse the smaller...

Gtx Titan, GTX Titan X, 980 Ti, and even the regular Gtx 980 are all still very good gaming cards on 4K. Overclock a standard GTX 980 to 1500mhz core and it is a beast for around $285 used. And a Titan X is still the best option if it can be had for $450-500. I am running (2) GTX Titan X...
