hi my current system is about 6 years old and is starting to show its age. I was hoping to get a new system next year but its now looking like it could be towards the backend ofthe year.
My thoughs are if overclock my cpu and either overclock my gpu or get a short term upgrade this would last untill i can get a new system.
My current system is i7 3770k.....980ti 16 gig ram .
like i said regarding the gpu i was looking at a second hand 1080ti or 2070 or could i get a decent boost if i overclockmy 980ti?.....
 
Thanks for the replys...I have had the same PSU since this system was built ..think it's a xfx silver or bronze 750 watt semi modular...and unfortunately I have no idea how to overclock yet...
 
wow so many replys...thanks to everyone . im not looking to go mad but if i could just get a bit more performance that would keep me happy. will check my mobo...know its a gigabyte z77 something....
