Hello again guys. So the time has finally come where I am really itching for a monitor and GPU upgrade, its been a long time (you can see my current system in my signature). I have my heart set on going to a 21:9 1440p ultrawide but I just can't decide whether to save some cash and go Freesync + Vega 64 or spend it and go with G-sync + 2070. I've been pulling my hair out for the last month here trying to make up my mind. Is there any real reason to spend about $500 extra on the Nvidia route?
My other question is: how do you think the rest of my system (4670k) is going to handle this? Do I also need to consider an upgrade to 8600k at this point or can I get a couple more years of solid gaming out of my rig? Would adding a liquid cooler and taking my 4670k up over 4.0 GHz be worth considering? (I'm still running a Zalman air cooler that is nearly a decade old)
Just wanted to get some opinions here, what would you do in my position? FYI I am also planning the switch to Win 10 soon so I can play the new Forza games with my steering wheel setup.
