Depends on what you are going to play on it.
If you don't play FPS shooters and you are not a little competitive. Then a 4k gsync will be the best for you for Single player games.
But if u play six siege, csgo, pubg etc then probably 1440p 144hz. Do note you will need a good cpu to push 144 fps at a constant rate.

Jayzzy bhai I would rather wait till they're officially released but if I were you, I'd rather go for the 1080 ti at this time. Why? the whole ray tracing thing kinda seems like a gimmick to me just like how they hyped up physx back in the day plus it is not supported by most of the current games out right now and we don't have an exact idea about how much faster it will be than the current gen. After the launch, you can pick up a 1080 ti even cheaper since I think you're in the UK right now

Like the member posted above and I'd just wait for actual benchmarks (some reliable ones like TPU, Guru3D and a few more) and physically launch on storefront. We still not sure/seeing if Ray-Tracing (of greater significance) is even optimized for RTX 2xxx GPUs or not. Its pretty early to make decision on this upgrading, especially when the price difference is more than 40% over beastly performer, Pascal.

I would suggest you to buy ultrawide 3840x1440 setup, it is a top more productive and sexy for gaming movies and productivity while only downside being 16:9 videos will have black bars on it.

    Phil should be held responsible for this shitfest too, just like Sarah, but it's highly likely that these decisions are coming from Satya. And this isn't even the end of it. More closures are coming.

    if we are moving towards more and more popular trash across platforms that make billions for companies, I'm happy with all the barriers and exclusivity because at least that brings some pressure to create good stuff.

    Phil keeps talking about breaking barriers to gaming, making it accessible on all platforms yada yada, while killing competition and creativity at the same time. the fact that i actually believed him for a second lol

    They could've sold the studios instead of closing them, but the nazi bastards just didn't want competition down the road.

    So i just found out that f***ing s***bag Microsoft shut down Arkane Studio (makers of the brilliant Dishonored series) and Tango Gameworks (makers of the iconic The Evil Within series), among some other studios. I just want to say a giant F*** Y**! to Microsoft. THEY'VE F***ED UP BIG TIME this time.

    Started Dead Island 2, and i find it pretty lame. The story is shit. The characters are either cringe or bland (all 6 of them), The gameplay isn't fun. Even the goddamn zombies don't behave like proper zombies. They're all fast & intelligent unlike how zombies are supposed to be like. Any fan of "zombie" genre cannot possibly like this shitfest of a game. Dying Light 2 was million times better than this shit.

    tbh gaming industry as a whole is failing much like tech industry. They have buckled down too much to Corporate suites then relying on passionate and innovative people. A corporate only believes in financial growth and shareholders.
