If you really need an upgrade, get a second 980 Ti or a single 1080 Ti :D

there isn't much to upgrade, New i7s are only marginally better than a 4790k, a 980 ti is similar to a 1070.

maybe and ssd if you don't already have one.

yeah maybe I will buy 960 pro SSD. 

 

thanks for the suggestion, what do you say about the RAM? and the motherboard?

Upgrading your motherboard is pointless and I doubt that you'll need more than 16GB of RAM ;)

shouldn't be as long as there's the same amount of VRAM in both cards. But I don't think you have to worry about that with the 980ti.

Well, you can't use DDR4 without changing your motherboard and CPU :D
