Good evening fine chaps of ocuk
My processor is quite old now over 5 yrs i was looking at a new gfx card from my nvidia 970 strix but it seems i am very limited in choice by cpu bottleneck. I have 16gb ddr3 ram is there any card I can get that will not be bottlenecked so I can play in 4k or am i too restricted by the cpu? ( recently got a 4k tv so would like more use out of it)
Price no issue and would like to buy from ocuk obviously. I am very out of touch lately. Due a cpu upgrade too probably? My mobo is asus sabertooth z77. Whats the best step forward from a 970 or is it not worth it?
thank you for any advice
