I run some of my games in SSAA x4 which is essentially running the game in 4k. My 7970 overclocked to perform at 780 levels handles it fine. Like someone else said, you would obviously turn down AA (Or turn it Off) as it isn't needed nearly as much.

 Games I can max out in 4K at 60 FPS include: Borderlands 2 (Unreal Engine 3), Mass Effect 1-3 (Unreal Engine 3), Chivalry (Unreal Engine 3), and All of Valve's Source games.

P.S. Yes it looks beautiful :)

We'll see what happens when games using Unreal Engine 4 start to appear.

And, no disrespect, but the Source engine is not that demanding. It has what, 9-10 years?

Nice catch!  And I never said they are hard to run games (That was kinda my point).  I am saying on one hand yes 4K is harder to run, but on the other hand it is no where near bonecrushing!  In fact I can easily play BF3 and Metro: 2033 at 30 FPS in 4K (But I don't lol as my screen is 1080p and I wouldn't notice the difference).
