Anyone who buys this card for 1080P gaming is silly.
With that said... This is the kind of card you can use to take advantage of Downscaling, even on a 1080P panel.

About to be a lot of silly folks out there, then.

Jokes aside, I'm sure there will be plenty of 1440p owners grabbing some of these. But, against even my earliest speculation, this card still isn't ideal for an exclusive 4K experience.

It is a ripper for 2560x1440 and 2560x1600 though, the 1070 is the card that targets the 1080P market (Downscaling not withstanding.)

For Eyefinity/4k/5k resolutions, you still need multiple GPU's for the best experience.
