you could pickup an RX 460 for about 60, you'll get NGU sharp low around 30ms rendering, that What I was getting prior.

EDIT pretty sure its HDMI 1.4 spec, unless there was a late HDMI 2.0 version?
Right thanks, but even a RX580 isn't all that faster than my o/c 7850(basically as fast as a 7870): http://gpu.userbenchmark.com/Compare...870/3923vs2161

only +54% in some benchmarks and apparently Polaris doesn't like NGU huh, I got all bells and whistles enabled(SSIM 2D, ED2, NGU, Luma & Chroma SuperRes) with my 7850 @1080p so I guess I'll have to throttle it all down a good bit for 2160p and even a RX580 wouldn't quite be the savior either as it would appear.

Apparently Club 3D make dongles that convert DP to HDMI 2.0 allowing 2160p60 on any semi-recent AMD so that's another option, hopefully hiccup-free
