At least my GTX Titan X is not loud. My GTX 770 was louder.
Prefer Blower-Style cards, not Open-Air coolers.

If you want something new get a Gigabyte RX 460.

I only have a 5770 at the mo and I was playing Tomb Raider today for an extended period, the fan became annoying. Graphically though it seemed more than adequate at default settings feed my 30" ACD.
Runs absolutely fine. Currently I have the below installed;
Alien Isolation runs at low - medium settings, everything else runs fine at default settings. I sometimes play TR in Parallels but it gets choppy at times. (A few of the other titles won’t run at all in Parallels).
I usually boot natively into Windows. If you like Tomb Raider by the way look to Steam. It’s £3.74 at the mo compared to £22.99 at the Mac App Store and Steam is everything the Mac App store wants to be and more.
My hope is to be able to buy the Tube when it’s updated this month with.
Selection of Card(s) that support 4K obviously.
Dual hard drives, (one of the GPUs is removed as an option).
A selection of HDMI, USBC, Ethernet etc. etc.
Tim I know you can't hear me but maybe you’re listening.

Gotcha. Either my monitor or my GPU is dying as I have a fair bit of static on a very dark static image, (don't notice it at all otherwise). I’ll see what MVC has to offer.

If you mean 4K 60Hz boot screen, it doesn't exist.
AFAIK, the only card that can support 4K boot screen is the MVC Maxwell card, but that's obviously a flashed card.
