8700k 4070ti Bottleneck?

i don't really bother personally because its minute, just cap to refresh rate or use Gsync depending on game. Gsync is best for fighting games where you want high FPS throughput but no tearline so like figiting and competitve games and then everything else that does not require that gets locked to refresh rate.

Everything else outside of that is measuring bees dicks for gains that you probably won't even notice.

if its a full atx case with no drive caddy then yes it will fit. Sorry don't have time atm to look at that link.

Yes it will fit.

Ask yourself if you need the upgrade or just want the upgrade. I bought a 2070 super going from a 980 super triple fan 12gb. The difference is not very big unless i want to render stuff in 3D using real time shaders.

I didn't really need the upgrade but wanted it because i do 3d stuff other than that its imo not wise to upgrade atm.
Cards especially and computers are going out of date like hotcakes so unless you need the extra functionality i think choose your battle.

The 1080ti is still a strong card it can do DX 12 ultimate and latest OpenGL, Vulkan. if you still feel good in the games you play then consider waiting.

Its all hype train just because the cards are getting replaced fast does not mean that they are no good 1080 is still plenty of power, one of my computers still uses a keppler card so 780ti and that card in its own right is still very solid it can play many games and is keeping up in its old age.

The influences online are designed to make people think they are being left behind. Depending on what you do on the computer then buying a 4x series card is throwing money away if you don't actually need that power. I would say if you are going to do rendering or Ai learning then you would be making the most of your money with those to options,

games not so much because games are not really rendering in real time that much yet they are but its way less common and still new ground.
Benchmarks are good for comparing parts but they are not always good for determine if you should upgrade. Real world work loads don't saturate the computer like a benchmark will because the benchmark is about stressing throughput which is not an accurate simulation of real world workloads.

We are already at 4090 so that means the next line will be close.
