I want to get into 4k gaming. My goal is to have 60 fps. The in game settings can be low because I prioritize high frame rate over ultra settings. I also have a 1080p monitor that I want to use for multitasking in conjunction with the 4k monitor that I will get. I've got a budget of $1000 (monitor has its own budget) but I can spend more if you think it is worth it.
My current build
MOBO: evga x58 sli motherboard
GPU: nvidia gtx 960 ssc 4gb
CPU: Intel I7-975 extreme edition overclocked to 3.62 GHz
RAM: 12gb (3x4) ddr3 1600 gskill ripjaws
PSU: Antec 520w
I will be buying a gtx 1080(ti) on black friday, and was wondering if I should replace the rest of my build as well. I think my psu can stay for sure but I don't know if I can keep anything else and achieve the performance that I'm looking for. Any suggestions on parts to replace or deals would make me very grateful.
I have another $500 for a 4k monitor and was wondering if anyone has any suggestions or if I should wait till black friday.
