My computer has gone a few years without an upgrade, and it's starting to show its age. I'm an avid gamer, although 1080p is fine for now, possibly upgrading to 1440 is a possibility, while 4k is probably much further out. Current specs are:
i5 2500k cpu
geforce GTX 960 2gb
16gb RAM
2x 250 gb ssd hard drives, 1x 1TB HDD
all on an ASUS p8z68-v LE motherboard
the 750w PSU is about 4 years old
My question is, should I upgrade now, or wait a little bit for 1440p/4k to get cheaper? I was thinking of upgrading to the cheaper gtx 1060 6gb to hold me over with basic 1080p, then go balls deep later on with a new cpu/gpu/psu/tower/RAM later on down the line.
Or is now a better time to upgrade my nearly 6 year old i5 2500k, while getting the 1070/1080 gpu?
Thanks in advance!
