Questions about GPU

Grisweld

Hello all I have a few questions but first I will link my current benchmark using UserBenchmark.

UserBenchmarks: Game 37%, Desk 60%, Work 47%
CPU: Intel Core i7-6700 - 86.1%
GPU: Nvidia GTX 950 - 33.3%
HDD: Toshiba DT01ACA200 2TB - 73.9%
RAM: Unknown DDR4-2133 CL15 8GB 2x8GB - 75.5%
MBD: Gigabyte GA-H110M-A

 

My first question is will a 1070Ti Work with my current CPU without Bottlenecking Im looking into getting ZOTAC GeForce GTX 1070 Ti AMP EXTREME, this is a really large card but the price it is right now seems very good for having 3 fans for that extra cooling. I plan on making this setup last for the next 3-5 years in hopes of being able to play almost game out or will be coming out, that I'm not 100% sure about. (That's where all of you come in *hopefully*) My second question would be about upgrading from a 2TB HDD to a 500GB SSD for my OS and would like to know if it would be worth dropping about $500 into what I currently have for both of those items. If so what would be the best way to move everything important over to the SSD and keeping the HDD for extra storage, because lets face it, like money we never have enough. Using the same benchmark it shows as HUGE gains over what I currently have right now. Originally my plan was just to slap a 1050 in it and call it a day but a friend of mine told me to use that benchmark and see what would be decent upgrades for the cost (at the time it was about $300 max). After window shopping I found a few really decent deals and that $300 max was gone from the picture. I have not really put a desktop together since the early 2000s so I feel way out of date this PC was a gift from a family member so its just a so called pre-built gaming desktop that being said it has run almost everything I have thrown at it decently for what it is. My last questions are would these 2 upgrades be compatible with what I currently have right now and if you would do this for yourself because of the possibility of the benchmarks listed below, of course I realize that there is a chance of this being just eye candy and could be buffed numbers, but as I stated earlier its been many years since I have done anything like this.

 

This would be what the benchmark states with those 2 items replaced.
Alternative Bench: Game 99%, Desk 80%, Work 63%
CPU: Intel Core i7-6700 
GPU: Nvidia GTX 1070-Ti 
SSD: Samsung 860 Evo 500GB 
HDD: Toshiba DT01ACA200 2TB 
RAM: Unknown DDR4-2133 CL15 8GB 2x8GB
MBD: Gigabyte GA-H110M-A

I had an i7-6700 with a GTX 1080. Performance was fine and more or less on par with what all the reviews were getting. So I don't expect a 1070 Ti to behave any worse.

So in your opinion could I expect realistically this to be viable for the price point? I really want to crank out 3-5 years without touching this desktop anymore and running almost any game that I come across. I currently just started playing fallout 76 which is by far not debugged lol, but I play mostly ARPG, MMO, and MMORPG's

Yes. The two parts are fine with each other.

I second this having had an i7 6700 also on 2133mhz memory with a GTX TITAN XM which kinda is a maxwell 1070 Ti.

 

A bit more single thread/frequency would have been welcome but not a major issue at all.
