Possible PC Upgrade Bottleneck?

[LaserBoss]

Hello,

 

I am going to be upgrading my custom desktop PC soon and I wasn't sure if by leaving in some of my old parts I would be creating a bottleneck. I will be keeping my CPU (Intel Core i7-4790K Devil's Canyon Quad-Core 4.0 GHz LGA 1150), RAM (Corsair Dominator Platinum 16GB 2x8 240-Pin DDR3 2400 MHz), and Motherboard (ASUS ROG MAXIMUS VII HERO LGA1150 Z97 Chipset). The component(s) of note that I plan to upgrade are my GPU and I plan to buy a non-reference GTX 1080 ti from either ASUS or EVGA. My goal is to have great gaming performance (high FPS) while running games at 1440p. Would this work?

 

Thanks

There's always gonna be a bottleneck between the CPU and GPU, one will bottleneck the other, so don't worry too much about it.

 

You'll get pretty great fps at 1440p.
