After a power surge it looks like I need to upgrade a few parts. I already have PSU, SSD, HDD, DVD, Case and OS.

I want this to push the Ultrawide so I'm expecting to run games on High / Ultra > 60 FPS ideally > 90. I've not spec'ed AMD for a very long time so hopefully I've picked the right CPU/Mobo.

I have a working GTX970 is the 1070 enough of a step up or should I go 1070Ti. I may be getting a Oculus Rift again at Xmas so PCars 2 would need super sampling with this card.

I've not set a budget if you see some improvements please say. Also memory prices are mental so only went 8GB?

Thanks

Quick Edit - Changed Mobo to Asus ROG (Headphone Amp Works on front panel)

Edit - Changed memory to slower 2666 after reading about Mobo compatibility.

OK think I'm getting there. Went 1070ti for a small £ increase and changed the RAM. Any thoughts before I click buy??

Not used Palit before I notice they only do 2 years warranty are they a good brand to deal with?

Ahhhhh, call up and change the 1070ti palit dual... It's a cheap PCB board design . Mainly used buy system designers as you buy them in bulk . Based off reference design but cut down !
And only 2 year warranty for a lot of cash!
Team group is mostly recommended on here .
Specially the @8 Pack version !
