Not at all unless you're running SLI Pascal Titans.

 

Stick with your 4790k and overclock the RAM.

We don't know anything about Pascal at the moment but, I'm sure you'd be fine.

Well, with an i7, GTX 1080, Full tower and flashy lights, it can obviously only be for one thing:

Solitaire.

Hi. Really sorry but everyone is wrong. If a Pascal enthusiast card equals the current cards in SLI, you will have a bottle neck. As will I since I have the same CPU.

 

 

If anyone asks you never saw me.

We will, but at 1080p, our FPS will be well over 60 anyway.

Should be good mate, I'm going to bottleneck like a bitch I think because I'm going to duct tape one to my Sandy Bridge, just hope she doesn't put up a fight.
