Caught U Gamin
Ok so I just ordered my very 1st 1080ti. I've had the EVGA GTX 1070 Hybrid for about 9 months now and been dying to upgrade. Today I purchased the Evga 1080ti FTW3 hybrid. I'm excited about this and was wondering if this is a huge step up or a slight. Sorry for the Noobish question but I'm still new to this scene all together. Thx in advance
I actually had a 1070 hybrid and switched to the ftw3 hybrid as well. It's a pretty big step up if you're actually utilizing the extra power. A 1070 will be able to handle any game, albeit not always at the highest settings, but the 1080 ti will take it to the next level. I have a 1440p 165hz monitor that was basically pointless when playing games with high graphics settings with a 1070 because I wasn't getting the framerate necessary to make a difference. 1080 ti blows it out of the water. Playing games like PUBG at 1440p, where my 1070 was running at like 90 fps at best, now sits consistently at 144 (which is the built in fps cap in that game, so it's likely a good bit faster than that a lot of the time). Everything is just a whole lot smoother now.
