Pizmo Posted February 8, 2018 Posted February 8, 2018 So I just ordered a new Geforce 1080ti to replace my 1070. However I only have i7-6700 CPU and a H170 motherboard (not overclock-able) . 16gb RAM Does anyone have issues with the CPU bottlenecking the 1080i with this setup? Can I expect a big improvement in performance without having to upgrade CPU and motherboard? I'm using Oculus Rift CV1. I know I could just wait and find out but any input might help me order some items while I wait. Thanks Pizmo

Pizmo Posted February 8, 2018 Author Posted February 8, 2018 i would go 32GB ram.. Great idea! I should have thought of that Thanks Pizmo
Pizmo Posted February 8, 2018 Author Posted February 8, 2018 (edited) BTW To whoever is looking for one I was able to get the Geforce 1080ti on NVidia.com today for $699USD Thanks Pizmo Edited February 8, 2018 by Pizmo
Pizmo Posted February 9, 2018 Author Posted February 9, 2018 This may help Yeah it definitely helped me decide to upgrade CPU. I'll probably go with the GPU and RAM upgrade only and run with that for a few weeks. Then take the plunge. You're input was greatly appreciated. Thanks Pizmo
Demon_ Posted February 10, 2018 Posted February 10, 2018 (edited) You don't need more than 16GB to play DCS now. Spare your money for your next platform CPU/MoBo/DDR4 ... :smilewink: You need a beast who run at 5Ghz to fully feed the 1080Ti. Not more RAM...

Well I had an extra 8gb DDR4 so I just needed to get a match to make it 32gb. But I'll be in beast mode eventually Thanks Pizmo
