Anything here I can upgrade?

Yeah definitely go for a 1000 series GPU and/or a SSD aswell as they are great for better boot times.

Nothing really I would bother upgrading, maybe the monitor to a nice 1440P 144hz, maybe go gsync. Could also add another 980ti for SLI

You're not in dire need of an upgrade.

You can get a 1440p monitor, or an SSD. That's about it.

If you REALLY need more CPU power it'll be worth seeing what Ryzen offers in multithreaded tasks as it probably will be similar to a 4790 in gaming.

For your GPU.. Again, wait for the 1080Ti or id personally hold out for Vega and Volta and see how that plays out. That'll get you more performance and possibly even 4k60FPS gaming or decent 1440p120FPS gaming for much cheaper.

No no no.

He's got a 980Ti, a 1070 would be a side grade. He might as well wait for Volta and Vega

Why not?

If money inst an issue you may aswell as it offers a decent performance boost.

Ive got a 1080. I upgraded from 2x970's which is same as 980ti performance wise, but that was due to limited vram cause no stack in SLI no because of raw power. It isn't enough of an upgrade imo, as I said I think a second 980ti would be a better/cheaper option - obviously money no issue you build a whole new rig with SLi Titan XP and 4k monitor

See what Vega offers to.

Plus Freesync monitors are $100s cheaper.

They've always done better in the low-mid end market. The 470 beating the 1050/1050Ti for a similar price. The 480 being cheaper than a 1060.

NVidia blows AMD out of the water in sales for one reason... So many people legit either don't know who AMD are or just buy NVidia because it's NVidia.

True, AMD doesnt get out to the audience much. around what time this year do you think nvidia will release anything new?

1080Ti is rumored March. I'm personally not hyped for it as it'll likely be a cut down Titan XP. Volta? Idk. Vega is Q2/Q3 though
