[SOLVED] Looking for i7-7700k Best GPU for Bottleneck

[ccoo84]

Hello

I'm looking to get the best cheapest GPU Rtx for the money without having to rebuild my whole system.. My current card is a GTX 1080ti, I wanted to go for a RTX 3080ti build but saw a posting & a comment about the CPU being bottlenecked.. Your oppinion means allot thank you..
So which card is the best for reaching the peak performance of the i7 7700k.

I game at 60fps 4k

if you play at 4k, then your cpu wont be bottleneck, it will become bottleneck once you lower resolution to reach higher fps

Nice thank you so you think that buying a rtx3080ti isn't overkill, for my CPU?
I just don't want togo whole build crazy again the newer hardware is getting pricey..

for 4k gameplay at 60fps, cpu doesnt matter, 4cores/8threads is sufficient
if you can play low resolution now at 60fps then you can play high resolution with better graphics with new gpu, cpu usage is barely any different
issue with your cpu would be when you want to play at much faster refresh rate

You should be ok, at 4k, unless you come across a title that wants more cores/threads than your CPU can provide.
