Best Upgrade Path?

[xIBullet]

Hey all, New here looking for a little feedback to see what would be the best direction to go. Thinking of doing a new build but i am currently running everything at 1440p on a 144hz 1ms monitor. Current specs are as follows;

 

I5 6600k OC'd to 4.4gh

Gigabyte 980ti slight OC

16gb ram

gigabyte Z170 motherboard

OS on a 850 evo SSD.

850W evga powersupply 

240 or 280mm nzxt kraken AIO

 

Would it be better to just upgrade to say a 2070 super with the current peripheral specs and run the rest for another year or so? PC is mainly used for gaming, internet and movies. 

 

max budget i would want to spend if a new build is in order somewhere in the $1800-$2000 CAD

 

Any feedback is appreciated

 

Thanks!

 

Bullet.

Are you already getting 144fps? If yes, why do you want to upgrade? If not, monitor your cpu and gpu usage in the games you play to see which is holding you back.

Depends on the game usually I’m hovering around 100fps maybe a little lower. Looking to get into 4K streamed to the big screen occasionally. The idea is coming from a pc I helped a friend put together and started looking at component prices for my own uses. Seeing some of the holiday prices piqued my curiosity a bit more to build a new system.

For 4k you'll need a stronger gpu, like the 2080s. For more than 120fps, you'll need a cpu upgrade

hmm, sounds like i might just wait a little bit and save for a bigger budget due to the Canadian prices instead of putting together another i5 system. 

 

Thanks!
