My current setup:
i5 4690K
16GB DDR3 ram
Radeon 290x GPU
I just purchased a GTX 1080 ti card to replace the 290x.
Will my CPU/Ram hold this card back? Or will my CPU/Ram allow this card to run pretty solid to its potential?
Also to note.. I am playing 1080p/144hz. So I am not doing 1440p yet, although after buying this card, I do wish I had maybe bought a 1440p/144hz monitor instead of the 1080p one.
The 144hz experience is new to me.. and I want to be able to take full advantage of it. So running 144fps solid is my goal, but without dropping graphics too much if I can help it.
Now I'm really debating selling some stuff I'm not using so much, and upgrading to an 8700K with 3200 DDR4 ram. I do some video editing from time to time as well, and I'm sure I'd appreciate the i7 in that process.
Sorry if this all seems scattered, just trying to figure out what may be best for me.
