3DMark

“The new 3DMark includes everything you need to benchmark your hardware. With three all new tests you can bench everything from smartphones and tablets, to notebooks and home PCs, to the latest high-end, multi-GPU gaming desktops. And it’s not just for Windows. With 3DMark you can compare your scores with Android and iOS devices too. It’s the most powerful and flexible 3DMark we’ve ever created.” From Futuremark.com

Here in Firestrike, you can see the raw power of the GTX 970 just pips it at 1080p and 1440p. However, at 4K, the added 4GB VRAM gives the GPU core room to breathe and come out top.
