Need help - New Build / Upgrade

[Gibisux]

hello guys! 

 

i have a couple of questions 

1. if im going to upgrade my processor from i7 to i9 9900k and pair it with a GPU 1080ti. will there be any bottleneck issues? 
2. is i9-9900k powerful enough to accommodate two GPU's? like 2080/2080ti and 1080ti in a single build. 

3. can i still use my 1080ti card even if its not SLI compatible with a 2080ti? 

coz i'm planning to upgrade my system, and i need all your expertise on this.  

currently these are my specs:

NZXT S340 elite Case
NZXT Kraken x62 cooler

Seagate BarraCuda ST2000DM006 2TB SATA

Corsair CX750M v2 (2017 Edition) 750W 

G.Skill TridentZ RGB Series 16GB (2x8GB) 288-Pin DDR4 3000

Intel Core i7-7700k

Samsung 960 EVO M.2 250GB 
Asus Z270 Prime - A Mobo
EVGA GeForce 1080 ti ICX

 

Looking forward for your responses. thanks!

GPU bottleneck  but honestly as long as the bottleneck gives you enough performance, you don't have a problem here.

Even something as weak as a Celeron can run 2 GPUs

Yes, just no SLI and don't help performance in games except in DX12 multiGPU mode.
