Hi Guys,

This is my build

Processor - Intel Core i7-2600 @ 3.40GHz overclocked to 4.2Ghz
Memory - Dual Hyper DDR3 16GB
Graphics - GeForce GTX Titan 6GB
Gaming Monitor 141 refresh
Motherboard - Asus P8Z77-V LX Intel Z77 (Socket 1155) DDR3 Motherboard

Playing Witcher 3 Ultra settings - No Framerate loss.

What system components would improve graphics of games?
 
It depends what games you're trying to improve. The graphics settings within games are what will improve the actual quality of the graphics, your components will either have good or bad performance depending on their power.

What games are you having problems with? If - as you state - you're not experiencing an unsatisfactory frame rate in any games you play, then no upgrade is going to be of benefit to you.

Generally speaking though, the weak link to me would be your CPU. It's beefy enough to run a lot of current games, as is evident from the fact that - as you've outlined - The Witcher 3 is is running very well, however some games are more dependent on CPU. Unless you play some of these, it's largely pointless upgrading at this point IMO.

If you're after an improvement to the actual graphics quality that is present in your current games, you might have some luck finding mods for higher resolution textures, messing around with downsampling from a higher resolution, or using things such as SweetFX.
 
Only other thing I would add is What resolution is your screen?

You mention 144 hz so I am guessing 1080P?

If you want actual bigger textures then a 1440P will improve slightly for not a massive strain on your components.


Its a difficult one to say thou.
 
A titan will start to struggle at 1440p. I have played 200 hours of witcher 3 with a titan at 1440p and to average 60fps you have to turn a fair few settings down. It looked mostly great but there were places where things started to be a little ugly.
