Hey guys!

 

My system is decent for what it is. 6700k @ 4.7, 16GB of EVGA RAM @3000, 1TB HDD, 128GB SSD & 250(?)GB SSD, 980TI, and 280 EVGA AIO. Decent keyboard, mouse, etc. Just feel like I need to upgrade in some way. Any suggestions? I can wait. I know the time isn't right to upgrade anything major due to prices, etc. Just want the most out of games.

If you have the money, I would suggest getting a 1080 or 1080 Ti.

I would say wait for 6 months or so. GPU prices may drop? That setup is pretty decent assuming you aren't running out of space. A 1080Ti if you have cash burning a hole in your pocket.

Unless you have money burning a hole in your pocket, there's literally nothing in that PC worth upgrading. That system is like, what, 1 gen old? Not worth it.

Maybe a monitor upgrade to 1440p 144hz or something better if you don't already have one.
