What GPU should I pair with I7 3770 & K?

[_I_]

best possible
3770 or k are capable of running any current gpu

and depend son the monitor res
for 1080p, gtx 1060 6g will be good
for 1440p 1070ti would be better
for 4k or multimon setups 1080ti

also what psu

I have not decided what PSU I should pair it with?
Also, What resolution goes with GTX 1080?

Seasonic Focus Plus Gold are the best value and one of the top-line psus. 550W will be enough wattage.

1080 can make good use of 1080p 144hz or 1440p 60hz.

3x 1080p or 1440p
4k gaming is a stretch for gtx1080 non ti

a quality 600w psu will be fine for any single cpu and gpu system

if you plan on sli/cfx 750+w depending on the gpus

3770 is good until GTX 980/1060/RX580.
If you overclock heavily it until GTX 1070.
Anything higher would be held back.

Agreed, I'd never run a 3770K with a 1080 Ti. It just doesn't make any sense.

if you are running higher res it will gpu bottleneck before hitting the limit of a 3770k

Not really as I've seen FPS drops with my 2600 compared to my 7820X when I killed the 7820X trying to delid it in most r. tarded ways.

3770K will bottleneck 1080 Ti, period.

depends on the game and res
at 4k or higher with maxed settings a 1080 will be the bottleneck

Yes but we're talking about 1080 Ti here, which can do 4k with some adjustments. 3770K *will* bottleneck it as I've seen couple drops with the 2600...

[_I_]

2600 is not a 3770k
3770k is more efficient and can be overclocked

[John Doe]

I need to do a correction here, it's a RYZEN 2600, not an Intel SB 2700... so far more of a CPU, do the thinking.

r5 2600 and xeons have weaker cores and will bottlenck in cpu intensive games

either way, you can never go too high on a gpu when running high res display or rendering

Yes, you can with a 1080 Ti and above.

...and you think somehow this 3770K magically has faster cores than my now retired Zen 2600 at 4.1 Ghz? Yeah, right.

Blame the game developers, for still sucking at multi-thread optimization.

Of course your 7820x will be superior, its single-thread performance is higher, overclocked even more. You will gain more FPS in some CPU limited scenarios, sure, but overall the difference isn't worth spending another 600-700 bucks on a modern Intel to see benchmark wise a difference in scenarios that you probably never run in reality anyways.

A 3770, k or no k, won't "bottleneck" a 1080, nor a 1080 Ti.


Btw.:

...the 3770k can also be overclocked, and even way higher. *cough*
So, yeah, it is actually faster.

Yes, a 3770K or non-K WILL bottleneck a 1080 Ti, it has WORSE per-core AND multi-core performance:
