Hello Guys,
I'm currently sitting on a Xeon E3 1230 v3 coupled with a EVGA GTX 760 4GB and I've got 2 1080p screens at the moment. I am using my PC only for gaming.
So I want to upgrade to a custom GTX 1080/1070 - havent really decided yet, and stock is pretty low right now anyway.
In future I'm planning on upgrading to a i5 6600K with a decent Watercooling to have some OC playroom. Furthermore I am going to buy a 1440p@144hz or a 4K@60hz Monitor aswell, depending on the prices and your feedback.
There are a few questions that I have about my plans:
Will a 1080/1070 bottleneck my 1230 v3? If yes, how bad is it gonna be?
Should I even upgrade to a 6600K or wait for AMDs Zen or even the next Generation of Intel?
and last but not least, 1440p vs 4K, will it be possible as soon as I have my new setup and can you recommend me a affordable screen that is at least 27"?
I'd be very grateful if you could give me your opinions on my plans and also what you would be doing differently.
Sincerely,
