A mate is upgrading from his 1080ti so i was gonna throw it in my computer if its worth it (i still have to pay him $500)

Intel Core i7-2700K 3.5 GHz Quad-Core Processor


Intel DH77EB Micro ATX LGA1155 Motherboard

so basically i want to know if the chipset will fit my motherboard and if there will be any bottlenecks, let me know if i have to find and post any more spec's to make it clearer.

Assuming the vid card will fit in the case.... you won't have any problem with the 1080Ti on the motherboard.


The CPU will be the bottle neck. But the 1080ti is definitely worth $500, even used. You can always upgrade the CPU, motherboard, RAM, etc., later.


/e See if you can talk him down to $400-450

If you can hold out, Nvidia will be releasing their ampiere series this year and for 500$ you will probably be able to get a beastly rtx 3000 card

He is the kind of mate that would ask for fuel money if you're going to the same place, I did look around the internet and couldn't find anything cheaper even refurbished.

Also I'm Australian so a dollar here is almost 2 there

E/ I bought it, after 3 days of downloading games I'll let you know how it goes.
