gtx 1070 upgrade

[kris123456]

hello.
is it good idea to upgarde my pc to gtx 1070 card?
i have cpu i5 3570s
12gb ram 1333mhz
650w psu
r9 270x gpu

 

[ThatVietGuy]

Yes, but what brand/model is the PSU.

U know I.think u should.ipgrade ur.mobo. I mean yep.its a good.upgrade unless.u got.a better and newer i5 or.better.like.i7 processor. Lga 1155 still works.good but u can upgrade ur.mobo.for 6th generation processors for.more.performance if u have no.issue with ur budget
But.if.u have issue with budget its a good.upgrade but.if.I was u first I will upgrade.my.mobo.or.at.least.upgrade my.processor.to a i7 cpu to.max.out.performanve which ur gpu deserves
Best luck.for.u sir
Best regards khd

First question, what resolution? If you are at 1080p you *may* start to see some bottlenecking in some titles, 1440p less so, 3840p (4k) not really.

its fsp hyper 600 afterall (not 650w)

thanks.i have issues with budget unfortunately.

the CPU will bottleneck the GTX 1070 even on higher resolutions. the CPU still needs to tell the GPU to draw the necessary stuff and send it to the monitor. the speed of the CPU will still limit how many frames the CPU can command the GPU to draw.

4K is 2160p

i play mostly 1080p

Yes, but at higher resolutions/settings the GPU is taxed more, thus can render fewer frames, thus there is less demand upon the CPU to deliver data for said frames and CPU utilization drops. This is central to how bottlenecking is defined and can be reproduced easily. In addition it is part of the diagnostic process for determining where the bottleneck exists. There are of course exceptions to this, such as games that rely very heavily on CPU or "bad ports" which are really just the same thing. TL: DR Resolution and Software make the difference, and we cannot generalize.

Edit: Lol, got my vertical x horizontal mixed 😀 thanks for the catch!

you should really consider the GTX 1060 6GB. its cheaper than the GTX 1070, with the rest of the saved cash you can upgrade your CPU too.

the GTX 1060 6GB is a very good card for 1080p.

hmm, i think about it.

 

[CelicaGT]

At 1080p I agree with the GTX 1060 6GB, especially if your budget is limited.

does nvidia have virtual super resolution too, like amd?

it has DSR- Dynamic Super Resolution

when i have 1080p monitor does DSR make it same that 4k?

it wont look exactly like 4K but the quality will be much better than native 1080p.

then i dont have to buy 4k monitor.

Thanks to everybody.
