Hi all, been lurking here for the last few weeks trying to figure out what i should do and finally thought i should just make an account and ask.
Was about to do a full new system build but after visiting these forums all the talk of Zen2 has made me pause to wait and see what happens when it comes out. However the upgrade itch is strong so i'm seriously tempted to get a new gpu and screen now and do the rest of the build once Zen2 arrives and it all shakes out.
Current system:
i7 4790k @4.6ghz
16Gb ram,
Gtx 970
2x 250Gb ssds (all media storage on a nas)
corsair RM750
32 inch 1440p 60hz monitor
I'm really tempted to get this to satisfy the itch till ryzen 3 arrives and i can decide on a full new rebuild.
My basket at Overclockers UK:
My questions:
1: will a 4790k handle a 2080 at that Resolution.
2: will a 2080 handle that screen resolution at respectable fps.
3: is that a decent 2080 to choose.
4: is my current psu adequate for a 2080.
Thank you for any input.
