I want a new one because I want to be able to play Cyberpunk 2077 at 1440p max settings :) I am ok with the performance I get at the moment but at times I do wish it was better... I play at 1440p 144hz, I play Arma 3, Minecraft, PUBG, Apex, Witcher 3 I could go on. I play all the big titles and more. Budget is prob £550 so $670. Location is Uk.

Making the jump from 1070 to 1080ti doesn't make a lot of sense.

All the big titles and more, 1440p 144hz, £550/$670, this is why I asked, better to ask people who know more than me so I get the best result :)

Sooo I wanna get a new GPU, but I dont know which one to get... I currently have a GTX 1070 with a i7 7700k @4.5Ghz.

I was wondering if I should get a 1080ti or one of the RTX cards... Would be amazing if anyone could help :)

If you don't mind a used card, eBay has a selection of 1080 Ti's going for around $500.

 

But if you're looking for a 1080 Ti on more "official" channels like NewEgg or Amazon, get an RTX card. People are charging just as much if not more than an RTX 2080 for a 1080 Ti for some reason.

I have a blog! And a list of guides I've posted

If you're planning on pushing 144 frames at 1440p I'd go with the 2070 SUPER as it fits your budget.
