Not sure but i highly recommend the zotac gtx 1080 extreme amp edition or the zotac gtx 1080ti extreme amp edition. Both extremely fast cards with good low temps

if you aren't on 4k, then what resolution and frequency are you on (and planning to be on in the next 12 months)? The 1080 is really best suited to 1440p and up.

With that CPU, I wouldn't go for anything higher than a 1070. You might be able to see better average fps with a 1080, but your lows (0.1 and 1%) will be bottlenecked at around the level of a 1070, so you won't get a real benefit. That said, if the 1070 is still overpriced due to crypto minig then get the 1080.

Edit: I just noticed that your monitor is a 60hz, not really recommend the GTX 1080.
You could get a cheaper motherboard and a Ryzen 1600 with a stock or cheaper cooler, that would have opened up the possibility for a better monitor and a 1080. But I guess you are going for mini-itx and a small footprint so I guess your choices are aimed at that specific scenario. So the 1070 would be better for your situation.

1080p 60hz monitor


a gtx 1070 is MORE than enough to pretty much max out all games ( some exceptions )



some games now also eat stock i5's

so a cpu uprgade to a i7 7700 is also a good choice

Sorry for the late response. First thanks to the advice. I already got the 1070Ti from Zotac and I very happy with it also I got to conclusion that my CPU is also weak I've should got the i7 K version, but I will in future.

Your cpu is far from weak, you'll barely notice any difference in games if you decide to go for an i7.
