My current config, from Nov 2014 Sabertooth Mk2 Intel i7 4790 Geforce MSI GTX 970 (4GB) Win 7 64bit RAM 16Gb Everything runs nicely, but I'd like a bit more ooomph. I'm not playing at 4k. I'm using a projector @ 1080p and I'm fine with it. I'd like to upgrade, I was thinking buying a new graphic card first. I'm thinking about a 1080 or 1080Ti. What do you think ? |
My rig is not very different from your: i5-4670k@stock, 16Gb RAM and Win 7 64-bit, and I recently got a GTX 1070 to play at 1080p that, so far, it's working like a charm.
If you're gaming at 1080p, that processor will become a bottleneck with a 1080Ti, not sure about the 1080, but of course the bottleneck will only forbid you to get really high fps. You'll still get 60+ fps on all current and not too distant games with any of those two cards.
So, if you're fine with almost twice the power of your current GPU, go with the 1080. If you want more than that, even if you won't notice the difference in fps or graphics, go for the 1080Ti.
Please excuse my bad English.
