Erm yeah. I currently have a Palit 1080 super jetstream and looking to get either another one and run it in SLI, sell it and get a 1080ti or get a 2070 instead...

What are peoples thoughts? I cannot really max out games in 1440p and it's annoying... For example with my i5 8600k (stock) and 1080 I only get around 40FPS on Jurassic World Evolution.

Any advise?

An RTX 2070 isn't an upgrade from a GTX 1080, especially not for the amount of money you'd be spending. A 1080Ti is a bit of an upgrade, but again gonna be quite an expensive upgrade. I'd make sure another upgrade isn't more beneficial before upgrading GPU anyway.

What do you mean by another upgrade isn't more beneficial? What else could I invest in other than upgrading the GPU to get better frames?

I think I just need to stop looking to spend money XD

Thanks 13

Possibly CPU, though an 8600k should be adequate. Might want to add RAM if you have less than 16GB. Just overclocking CPU and/or RAM could give a noticeable benefit if the game you're playing is CPU dependant.
