So, my 980 ti died a couple of months ago and I finally got my refund for the RMA. I could go and buy a 1080 right now, but since the new Nvidia generation is about to come out I thought I could save a bit and buy a 2080.
However, I'm worried my 4790k will be bottlenecked by it. What do you think?
I play at 1080p but with a 240hz monitor, it's all about fps for me.
 
Solution
4790K might not be the bottleneck, but Z97 architecture might, I'm not fond to OC, but in this case is an exception, so spend more time on OC forum especially regarding Z97 platform tweaking.
