I agree with Hellfire. Also worth confirming that your CPU is decent enough to keep a 1080 busy.
Incidentally, do you have a high refresh rate or high resolution monitor? Because if you're only rocking a standard 1080P display then a 1080 is total overkill. May as well grab something cheaper and save your money.

As above, right now, you are going to be wasting a lot of $ buying a GTX 1080 with your pc and a 1080p monitor.
A decent 1440p monitor and a cheaper graphics card will give you more for the $$ you spend on a GTX1080

if u have 1080p then the 1060/1070 or rx480 shd suffice...if u go for a 1080 then its a waste...better save sum buck for future...
btwn...u nvr mentioned ur psu make/model...i m still wondering who manufactures a 735w...as far as i knew, they come in round figures usually...
