Hi,



I don’t have enough money to buy a new pc at the moment so I want to upgrade my graphics card so till will last a little longer. I have about £200 to spend, can you recommend what second hand card I buy?



Current specs:

Intel i7 930 @ 2.80GHz

24GB Ram

Asus gtx 680 directcu ii



I have seen Nvidia 980ti going for under £200 but I am not sure if that is a good buy for what I currently have. Any advice would be greatly appreciated
 
Yes, I am using the PC for gaming on a 1440p @ 60htz (no FreeSync or GSync) screen - mainly playing Doom and Gta 5 at the moment.


£200 is my upper limit I was looking at the 980ti as it is going for around £100-150 second hand.


Will the 980ti be bottlenecked by my cpu?

Thanks!
