SORRY FOR THE LONG READ IN ADVANCE
So the story is: The PC I have atm is a STRICT budget build (i5-7400, 8gb ram, gtx 1060 3gb, using some not so much recommended brands haha), and coming to the present I finally saved enough money and purchased parts to build an upper end PC (i5-8600k, MSI Z370 MB, 32 Gb Ram, etc.) But now that I am looking for an GPU to go along with my new build, I am having a problem deciding between Nvidia GTX 1070ti and the 1080
Examples of the decision problems:
1. Which brand to go with
2. Which GPU is better in the long run (the reviews I have been reading are up and down for both models)
I am into a week of researching, and now I am in between just throwing the 1060 3gb into my new build and waiting for new releases from Nvidia, buying one of the three gpus listed above (I'm afraid the 1060 3gb may cause bottleneck or other problems to the i5-8600k), or just saving a little longer and buying the more expensive 1080ti.
This problem I'm having is probably what many others who are upgrading are facing too, so just post your opinions/theories as you wish!
