I'm planning on buying the Gigabyte GTX 1080 OC for my computer and I want to know if it is compatible with an Ausus Z87-K Motherboard. I have the most recent bois and everything installed.

buy the best card you can don't worry about ''overkill'' no such thing in my opinion but looking back and wishing you did go ahead and get the better card can be a issue

used non k to eliminate cpu overclocking

1080 /1070 [gpu amount ''1'' and 1080p res ]

the top 1070 scores is where the 1080 is at number 90 ? overkill , right ?/

anyway your call no point...
