So, I've been thinking ..was gonna get an LG c7 55" OLED tv (now that the prices have come down) and an xbox one x and then I asked myself 'why?'. I already have an original xbox one hooked up to a 1080p plasma television that I have absolutely no complaints about at all ..looks fine and plays fine to me. My PC is an old 2012 refurb pre-built with an HD 7750 gpu that I put in it for Diablo III release. I obviously don't play any pc games currently with this setup, but I'm starting to think the TV + xbox one x upgrade isn't really gonna knock my socks off, but building a completely new gaming rig would! I know this is all personal preference. Sure, if I was a die-hard console gamer then the tv + xbox upgrade would probably be awesome, but like I said, I'm cool with my current setup. Link to complete build I'm considering at bottom ..my thoughts behind this are that I can get by on the gtx 1060 6gb gpu just fine and that's a good combo for the 1080p 144hz monitor (right?) and in the future when pricing comes down, I can upgrade to a gtx 1080 gpu and a 1440p monitor, and maybe get some cooling and oc the cpu as well (or maybe I only get 8gb of ram vs 16gb and put the savings towards a hydro cooler and oc the cpu now?). Does this build and future upgrade plans make sense? Is there a more practical way to go? ..anyone currently gaming on an xbox one x and LG c7 tv (just curious!) ..many thanks in advance!
Last thought - for another $200 I can get a gtx 1070 ti , which puts my complete build at around $1500. Would I benefit from this vs. using gtx 1060 6gb for 1080p 144hz gaming? ..If I'm already spending $1300, why not just bite the bullet on a 1070 ti and call it a day? ..I dunno! ..$1500 is my max for complete new build. Thanks!
Is this the build (1060 or 1070?) to go with if I want great 1080p 144hz gaming now that will also allow me to upgrade to a gtx 1080 gpu and 1440p monitor in the future, if I decide to go that route?
