So I've just got a stonkingly good deal on a acer predator x34 off the members market that was too good to pass up.
I know my 970 isn't really going to cut it at 1440 and 34 inches at anything other than medium settings so am definitely going to need to upgrade.
But what?
I'm currently running a 3930k, Asus x79 sabertooth motherboard and 16gb of Samsung green ram.
As far as I understand it, at 1440 I'm not going to get the same bottleneck I would with a new Gpu that I would at 1080p? So could I get away with putting a 1080ti or equivalent 11 series gpu in my current system or will I still need to fully replace the rest of my system?
