You should have no problem with 4K in older games that support it. As for newer ones, it's gonna depend on the game, the desired framerate, and the other quality settings.

If you did want 4K at high settings in newer games, the only thing you'd need to upgrade is your GPU. Everything else is plenty. However, make damn sure you've got up to date drivers, BIOS, etc with that CPU - it has a hardware issue that makes it more prone to degradation / breaking down, but the relevant updates take measures to minimize the risk of it. (And in future / for others reading this - for now, it's really just safer to go AMD on the CPU side of things. If your instinctive reaction to that is "wtf, AMD are shit" based on the Athlon / FX era... they have absolutely turned the tables since then.)
