November 17, 20196 yr Am currently running 6700K @4.5, on a Asus Maximus VIII Ranger MB with a 1070ti EVGA card on a Samsung 27" 1920x1280 monitor. If I have to choose between upgrading the CPU and MB or upgrading the GPU and monitor, what would you do? Dan Cole

Should have some great sales coming up this time of year. www.pcpartpicker.com Do your homework and get ready to pounce cuz they'll go fast. -J 13700KF | RTX 4090 @ 1440 | 64GB DDR5 | 2 x 1TB SSDs | 1TB M.2 NVMe

November 18, 20196 yr At 1080p you don't even need to be thinking about a GPU upgrade. If you're itching for an upgrade, get a new monitor. Then you'll feel the need for that new GPU 😉
