July 20, 20187 yr Author Thank you for all your replies, I really appreciate the input. I have decided to go with V3 for now and save some pennies for more RAM and a new GPU with a view to updating to V4 or V5 at a later date I know my current GPU will probably not be up to the job due to the amount of VRAM so I was initially looking at a GTX1070, the GTX1080 is about £100/$160 dollars more. For 1080P on a single screen would the 1070 be enough or should i save a bit more and just go for the 1080? What i am really looking for is a solid smooth experience on my 60hz monitor, not necessarily everything on Max settings. Many thanks Daz Edited July 20, 20187 yr by Dazkent My youtube channel http://www.youtube.com/c/Dkentflyer

V4 will bring my 1080ti to its knees quite rapidly when using higher graphics settings. Just depends on how much eye candy u would like to see. Matt Wilson

Many thanks Daz I am using a GTX1070 for a single 1080P screen in P3DV4 and am very happy with the experience. Edited July 21, 20187 yr by Bert Pieke Bert
July 21, 20187 yr Upgrading to the 1070 GPU would be a very cost-effective upgrade. This GPU and your 4790K CPU are very competent to run P3d v.3 or 4, and run it well! You don't need a new system, just the GPU and RAM.
