If he gets the 1070 like he mentioned and uses the on-board NVENC he would literally have a 1% fps drop. Pascal lineup can do 4k@30 fps with no real performance hit; at least using Shadowplay. OBS can be a bit of a resource hog HOWEVER when I last used it (6ish months ago) they had enabled NVFBC, so OBS captures from the front frame buffer (like shadowplay does). Meaning it's all done on the GPU/dedicated nvenc chip so there is no shuffling around to the CPU/GPU causing all that god awful fps lag.

But as WOWBOX40 mentioned.. just get the best you can afford and play around. I think you'll be happy with the results on one PC myself.
