Just realised I forgot to say, I'm currently using a GTX 970 lol

Yeah, I think I'll do that. I should be able to get a few hundred dollars off of the 1080 ti from my brother since he gets employee discounts at Harvey Norman (so he gets stuff at cost price) and for whatever reason they've begun selling GPUs on their own.

Lol it's definitely more than $450 for a new motherboard and CPU in Australia, plus I'd need DDR4 memory to replace the DDR3 I have right now

Getting a Zeon just means I'll have to get an i7 later one and have spent $400 on a temporary CPU that I'll need a new motherboard for anyway (you can't get the one you linked very easily in Australia, our retailers are dicks and stop selling older versions as soon as newer ones come out)

Good to know, I was worried my CPU would hold me back because atm I know something is but I suspect it to be the ram given that it gets pushed pretty far in a lot of games. That and my CPU is below the minimum spec for VR as it is and 3.2GHz didn't seem like enough.

So basically I currently have an i5-4460 processor (which apparently I cannot overclock) and 8gb of RAM on an ASUS H997M-E motherboard. I almost have enough to get a GTX 1080 Ti once the non-founders edition ones come out (assuming they're below $1200), but I think my CPU and memory will bottleneck it significantly, and it'll cost me a further $1206 to upgrade my motherboard, CPU (with a seperate cooler) and ram to the setup I wish to get. Any ideas on what I should do? Will I be badly bottlenecked? I mostly just want my VR to perform better for the moment until I can afford to upgrade the other components since I can only get the 1080 ti since I got like 5x the amount of money I expected for my birthday which made me only like $300 away.

Nickexp These videos are pretty cool- the 5K SLI makes me super excited for the Titan X. https://www.vessel.com/videos/JemZ8O7Hy also the H.O.T.A.S since it is interesting too look into joysticks as I want one for Arma and Battlefield.

This CPU looks OP. Just got my gaming pc running a GTX 970 Gigabyte G1 Gaming- if I had this I would have 4K so damn soon running on my pc with 970s in 2 (maybe 3) way SLI with 32GB of RAM. Computer parts in Australia are so damn overpriced- especially high end stuff like this.
