Posted March 7, 2017 I've been wondering if my asus z170 pro gaming would be enough for the 6700k and a gtx 1080. Also i've been thinking of getting the new 1080ti but the thing is that i am not certainly sure if my motherboard is good enough for that. Since the new graphics card is a killer. Mind helping me out ? Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Posted March 7, 2017 yep, although that mobo may need a bios update for the 7700k it should be fine QUOTE/TAG ME WHEN RESPONDING Please Spend As Much Time Writing Your Question As You Want Me To Spend Responding To It.
