<br>
I buy a new TV, Sony KD-55X8509C with 4K resolution.<br>
<br>
I have 2 frontends:<br>
<br>
   - Dual-Core E5700 @ 3.00GHz + GIGABYTE GV-R545HM-1GI<br>
   - ZOTAC ION ITX-G Synergy Edition<br>
<br>
Could both frontends play 4K videos? Or need I upgrade the graphic card?<br>
<br>
This is the software version:<br>
