1080 or 1080ti (Acer x34)

[Rudebear]

I will be getting a Acer x34 monitor soon and still debating which gpu to go for should. Is 1080ti a little bit overkilled for the monitor? Which card suit the monitor best?

The 1080ti is what you should aim, frankly I'm waiting Volta to actually finally get this monitor so no the 1080ti is not "overkill" for it, unless you don't mind playing on medium~high

When you have a 3440x1440 100Hz monitor, a GTX 1080Ti hardly qualifies as overkill.

definitely the 1080Ti, it shouldn't even be overkill. in some games a 1080Ti will struggle with 60FPS on that resolution, let alone 100!

Yolo your spending that bank anyway might as well go big. 1080ti

[Damascus]

Lol, nothing that exists right now is overkill for a 1440p ultrawide @100Hz

1080ti my boy. A 1080 would still be great, but come on, if you're gonna buy a badass monitor, you gotta get a badass GPU to go with it.

Depends on the game you play. If you do minesweeper all the time a GTX 1050 or RX 460 would do fine, hell even iGPU can do

I don't think 1080Ti can do every game at 100fps 1440p ultrawide, so no not overkill at all

I know I have 2x 1080's and everything is max at 100fps, I would recommend the single 1080 ti (almost wish I had waited for it)

Thanks all for the reply!! Guess I'll just save up a bit more for 1080ti
