A 1080 will be a waste in 1080p, I'll upgrade that monitor first.

well its not for those reasons its more if games are getting to hard for my current card to run

A 1080 is not worth it for 1080p, upgrade your CPU to an i7 first, as it will help the minimum FPS and it will not bottleneck the GTX 1080 (an i5 will bottleneck it unfortunately)

Bottlenecked because you're already running at 400FPS

also would my pc run dishonored 2 at 60 fps when it hopefully gets fixed

With maxed out settings it gets 150 fps... Take a look at these benchmarks:

Its getting the same FPS as the 1070

Indicating that even a 6800K is bottlenecking it... An i5 would be even worse

Its running at 4K. Theres no possible bottleneck. Its shit programming

Also look the 1060 outperforms the 1080 in 4K. Something is up

Glad I am not the only one to think that!

I would never pay $40 for that game....

(IF it was $20 then it would be kind of worth it)

Yes... It looks like the game is poorly optimised....

That said, game like Watch_dogs 2 are very CPU intensive (to the point were they can max out a 6700K!)

So the upgrade to an i7 is not completely useless (but not necessary at the same time)

It looks like a copy of TF2 IMO, so I would NEVER pay more than $20 for it.

would i be able to play watch dogs 2 at 1080 60 fps with my setup
