Gsync .. Vrr is not crap dude. U got to try it to understand it

Doubt pascal flagship can do that. Generall ure gonna need 2x performance of a Tx. Since each gen is about 40-50% gain.

So we are two gen away. Volta will be it.

Skylake interesting part is nvme. Only reason to upgrade.
Ddr4 hasnt matured to 8gb density sticks at 4800 c18-c21. No news on dp 1.3.
usb c currently in its infancy.

Z170 is bound to have more dmi issues with the pch. Z87/z97 has tons of issues already.

haswell benefit

if u want more
faster encoding via the huge dmi bandwidth.
sata 3 native ports
usb 3 ports

skylake benefits
NVME ssd
native usb 3.1 ports ( not sure just assuming at this point)

skylake still deciding should i go nvme. definately no obvious gain other then watching ssd benchmarks.
zero benefit on gaming to be honest.

usb 3.1 seriously is there any device out there thats taking advantage of its direct access to dmi gen 1 speeds??

nvlink  its not something ure gonna see beneficial on daily commercial gaming setups.
it will how ever open up to a possible octa titan pascal. also with such tech i am pretty sure nvidia has solve some multi gpu scaling here.
also interesting part about nvlink is .. the ability of gpu to access ram and vram of the other gpu directly if i am not mistaken.
the tech is gonna solve current issues with multi gpu.

go get yourself a 144hz IPS monitor . You wont regret it man , game that you play feels really buttery smooth without sacrificing colors and viewing angle . I have not experience g-sync or freesync but 144hz is really worth it  provided you have a decent gpu

Think of it like having the COD esque movement feeling  when playing non COD games even on RTS or games like Diablo 3 .

Hello guys..

Hope to get some opinion here..currently using strix980.. And a 1080 monitor..
Selling my 980 off and upgrading to 980ti? Or get the acer predator?

Im leaning toward the monitor as my current one isnt great.. If i get the 980ti , could be a waste using it on a dell nom gsync monitor right?
