I know that my rig can run the GTX 1080 on it, and I am happy to spend the money on the card, but I am looking for some help on whether or not to buy it, or buy the 1070.
I am currently running a Zotac GTX 970, surprisingly I can run a lot of games with high+ graphics at 150+ fps, such as BF1. But I have noticed it is starting to slip as newer games are becoming more intensive and my card is becoming old, at least that is what I think it is. All of the videos I seem to find discussing which to get, don't cover my specific needs. I have a 144Hz 1080p monitor, so I will need to run games at at least 144 FPS, although I will most likely be upgrading to a 1440p monitor, 4K doesn't interest me at the moment, but I am sure it will in the future.
Would the 1070 be sufficient for running the latest games at 1440p with a solid 144FPS with no frame drops with high+ quality settings? The £200 price difference isn't a huge deal, but it is still £200.
Thanks in advance,
James
