Nope. You will be needing 2x 1080ti's to run them. But at that time there are much better gpus

No dude. It depends on the resolution you're running and if you're doing VR.

Start there. Are you 1080p, 1440p, 4k, VR....

The difference in equipment needed for each of those to run perfectly are massively different.

You only need 2 1080ti if you're doing VR or 4k with really demanding games.

With 1080p a 1070 ti OC 8GB will do just fine for the next year or two I'd guess and probably longer if you're a reasonable person.

If you already have the GPU, just play your games and only worry about its performance when it no longer runs the framerates you want at the resolution and detail settings you play. We cannot predict how any GPU will run games that aren't even released or developed yet.

I think you're pretty good for a year or two. I got an i7 7700k, 16GB 3200, and a 1060 6gb and I'm pretty happy.

I'd be even happier if I had a 1070 ti...
