Keep 780 GTX Ti or upgrade to 10 series?

[mda96bjh]

I have a spare GTX 780 GTX Ti

Thinking of dropping this into a spare rig for occasional gaming at HD... However would I get a performance boost if I sold & picked up a 1060 instead? I haven't been able to find any comparative charts with last gen GPUs to compare...

Thanks

the 780ti will be just fine.

Yea until you play a dx12 game and then the gimped state really shines :/

IMO if you want a upgrade go for a 1070 , its what i changed to from my 780 1060 wasnt imo a big enough jump .

1060 isn't enough of a jump from a 780 Ti. It'd be similar to going from a 970 to a 980.

Either keep the 780 Ti or get a 1070.

Thanks for replies - very helpful!

780Ti is still perfect for 1080p at max settings in most games. Next upgrade is a 1070 and up, otherwise a pointless upgrade.

All Nvidia cards are dx12 gimped even latest and greatest. Don't fool yourself on this one. The 780ti is perfect for his needs and no point upgrading for so called dx12. DX12 is a huge failure so far and adds nothing new so far visually that makes the experience worth it. Nothing more than a sales gimmick for windows 10 and graphics card market trying to make people update for so called benefits that have not appeared at all and at worse made the whole experience worse and distroyed the multi gpu market.

Don't disagree with the Nvidia and DX12 statement but think it's still too early to call failure on DX12 yet - I think it takes a while for both games developers and hardware manufacturers to get the best out of each new DX version. BUt I suppose not been great so far but have yet to try a DX12 game myself

Probably wouldn't bother. A 1070 would be a proper upgrade.
