I've just purchased a GTX 1080 (not arrived yet) and i'm currently using a FX-8350. Has anyone had any experience with these 2 together? I'm not completely opposed to the idea of upgrading my CPU to perhaps an I7 but would it be worth paying the price? For gaming purposes and photo editing and video editing would I get that much of a performance boost out of an I7?
Best CPU for this situation?

no doubt even a quad core i7 would easily outperform that AMD CPU but you would have to buy a new motherboard and ram with the CPU so if you have a lot of money to work with then go for it, if not then you should be fine

This is of a 1070, but applicable.

In graphics-intensive games, on maxed settings, there is less difference.
