This is what my rig currently looks like :
Case Cooler Master HAF 932 Advanced Blue Edition - High Air Flow Full Tower Computer Case with USB 3.0 and All-Black Interior
Motherboard ASRock Z68 EXTREME4 GEN3 LGA 1155 Intel Z68 HDMI SATA 6Gb/s USB 3.0 ATX Intel Motherboard
GPU ASUS GeForce GTX 570 (Fermi) DirectX 11 ENGTX570 DCII/2DIS/1280MD5 1280MB 320-Bit GDDR5 PCI Express 2.0 x16 HDCP Ready SLI Support Video Card
PSU OCZ ZS Series 750W 80PLUS Bronze High Performance Power Supply compatible with Intel Sandy Bridge Core i3 i5 i7 and AMD Phenom
CPU Intel Core i5-2500K Sandy Bridge Quad-Core 3.3GHz (3.7GHz Turbo Boost) LGA 1155 95W BX80623I52500K Desktop Processor Intel HD Graphics 3000 Overclocked to 4.4 GHZ (hasn't gotten above 60c yet while gaming)
RAM G.SKILL Ripjaws X Series 8GB (2 x 4GB) 240-Pin DDR3 SDRAM DDR3 1866 (PC3 14900) Desktop Memory Model F3-14900CL9D-8GBXL
Microsoft Windows 7 Professional SP1 64-bit
Noctua NH-D14 120mm & 140mm SSO CPU Cooler
I was thinking about getting a 1060 specifically https://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814127963 (Seems kind of pricy compared to the other 1060 cards maybe because it's MSI?)
My concerns :
1) Is a 1060 even compatable with my MOBO / PSU ?
2) Will it fit?
3) Is it worth getting a 1070 instead or will my CPU bottleneck it too much to be worth it?
Any advice is appreciated. I want to get this ordered today so i can have it next weekend
