i5 3570k, Asus p8z77 V LK, Samsung 850 EVO SSD, GTX 970...
I'm not a high performance gamer, very happy with consistent frames between 40 and 60 fps... (I mostly play solo games like Witcher 3, Fallout 4, Skyrim, and I also play Elder Scrolls Online (generally solo or with a couple of friends) and Elite Dangerous (generally solo).
So I'm reaching a point where considering upgrade path moving forward... Especially as I've just been given a beautiful 40" 4K (60hz max) Philips BDM monitor as a gift... VERY nice screen.
I'm finding my current rig is capable of playing my above games in the middle graphics settings fine, but it I want to really use that monitor at its best, then I need better. I have been advised my CPU is still considered a very capable CPU..
So, do I upgrade to a 1660 Ti now, and start putting away money for a system upgrade 6 months from now, or do I buy the first component (motherboard?) for a new system and deal with the 970 for next 6 months..?
(Note: Aussie tax here, so looking at $500 AU just for a new 1660 Ti...)
YOUR THOUGHTS PLEASE...
