First up we have Battlefield 4 and at 4K the GTX 1080 delivers a playable 50fps on average with a 37fps minimum. This makes it 14% faster than the Titan X and an impressive 28% faster than the GTX 980 Ti. Compared to the standard GTX 980 it's a whopping 72% faster, while it also leads the Fury X by a fairly significant 47% margin.

Maxing out The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt still proves a bit much at 4K even for the new GTX 1080. Nevertheless an average of 43fps is playable, if not ideal, and it has the new flagship GeForce getting 22% better frame rates than the Titan X and 26% faster than the GTX 980. Although it crushed the GTX 980 by a 65% margin, it was just 30% faster than the Fury X this time.
