Dear [H]ard folks,
Ok, that sounded weird, but let's continue anyway.
I'm upgrading my monitor from an Asus VE278E (27"-1080p-144Hz) to the LG 32GK850G-B (32"-1440p-165Hz).
I assume my CPU (and RAM) are going to bottleneck the 1070?
These are my specs :
Gigabyte GeForce GTX 1070 8G
Intel i5-2500K (Bios auto-OC to about 4,1Ghz)
8 GB Corsair DDR3-1600
Asus P8Z68V_LX mainboard
I mostly play FPS-games (CSGO, BF1, Quake Champions,..) but also RPG's (Dragon Age, Witcher 3,..) and Overload starting from today!
So I guess I already know the answer (yes, bottlenecked), but does anyone have any idea by how much % more or less?
Is there for example a website where I can compare different CPU's paired with the 1070 so I can see by how much mine is holding back the system?
Bottom line : I'd like to compare the cash I have to spend on the upgrade to how much performance I would gain from it
Many thanks!
Joseph
