Hi tom'sHardware,
I am planing to upgrade my gaming pc CPU 2 or 3 months later, right now i have asus gtx 1070, i5 3550, 16 gb ddr3 1600mhz ram. i was planing to get a i7 8700k, with 16gb 3000+mhz ddr4 ram, with a compatible motherboard and Nvidia volta GPU on 2019year . i use this PC mainly for gaming.
please guide my on below following questions
1) is it right time to upgrade pc when GDDR6 technology is coming near feature?
2) is it worth upgrading my GPU form GTX 1070 to Latest Nvidia Volta when it release?
3) how good is i7 8700k compared to i5 3550 for next 5years and %of performance increase?
i wont upgrade again for next 4 to 5 years, so i need a solid build which servers me that long from ultra to high game settings. how much i loose in performance if i run Nvidia Volta gpu on GDDR5 motherboard compared to GDDR6 motherboard.
Regards,
