Hi, down below is my build:
Msi z170 A pc mate M0b0
i5 6600 cpu
Corsair Vengeance 2x8 16 gb ddr 4 2133 mhz ram
Crucial P2 nvme drive
The build is from some 6 -7 years ago. I haven't had a GPU for this system for many, many years. Thinking of finally getting something good. Eyeing a 3080; my question is, will a 3080 get bottlenecked by the components I've got ? If yes, how about a 3070 instead ? And also, what's the minimum wattage PSU I can get away with for a 3080 or a 3070 ?
Thanks in advance to anyone who has a look or posts
Edit: Forgot to mention I've got a new 1080p monitor, so any gaming done will be exclusively in 1080p resolution.
