I recently upgraded my pc so for the last couple of days I've been going through each of the video games I play and adjusting their settings higher. Now I'm stuck on what to do about my graphics. It's showing it's age and it can't really handle everything I'm throwing at it.
My current build:
Mobo: MSI Z370 Gaming M5
CPU: Intel i9 9900KF (Overclocked to 5Ghz w/ liquid cooler)
RAM: 24GB of DDR4 - 2x4GB Crucial Ballistix Sport & 2x8GB Corsair Vengeance RGB
GPU: Nvidia GTX 1080 Founders Edition
Case: Corsair Crystal Series 570x
Some things to consider:
Ideas?

Some things to consider:
- I'm not spending over $850 on a graphics card.
- The case has plenty of room for any size card
- I've got plenty of PCIe slots
- AMD is not an option.
- I frequently stream my games to my iPad, iPhone, and MacBook Pro using an app called Moonlight.
- I play primarily play on the highest settings the card can handle with a consistent frame rate. I use the Logitech Gaming Software and the Arx app to check the graphics card usage.
- I play on a 4k tv and I'd like to hit a stable 60FPS or higher so I don't have to rely on V-Sync to keep it looking smooth.
Ideas?
