So I've recently decided to put together a new pc. Majority of the parts already came and i took the liberty of building it. However, due to crypto-currency the gpu's are nowhere to be found for a decent price and the one that i had found i placed an order for,only that they said it should take them a minimum of 6 weeks to get the gpu's back in stock. So for now I'm wondering i should stick with my old pc, fx 8350 and 270x or to swap out everything else but the GPU and if so would it not bottleneck and have little performance upgrade on the overall system?

The specs for the new parts/PC : -

I7 8700k (no oc currently)
evga 1080 ti sc2
Corsair 16gb ddr4 3000mhz
960 evo 500gb
asus prime z370-a
