Overkill  :D ? Good, setup will work for the next 2 years without changing components .. 

 

Yep, it should be okay for a couple years.

Hi, I am thinking about upgrading my current system.
Can you advise me, is it possible to choose better hardware at a similar price +/- ...

2. Motherboard MSI MEG Z390 ACE

3. RAM Corsair 32GB DDR4 4000MHz Dominator PLATINUM
4. PSU Corsair HX1200i 1200W 80 Plus Platinum

New setup will have to lift off dual GTX1080TI from MSI in SLI with 4K resolution.

Well it's way overkill, for minimal benefit.  1200w Platinum?  SLI needs 850w.

 

SLI is basically dead too, what use/games are you seeing benefit in?

 

4000MHz RAM with a 9700K?  

 

I mean if you want to just blow money for way overkill stuff, then rock it.

I will not agree that SLI is dead, current support is not great but you can still get benefit from 2 video accelerators in 4K res .. 

Overkill  :D ? Good, setup will work for the next 2 years without changing components ..
