So I'ma chime in on all the people who think a 1080ti is a waste on 1080p.

There are some games that can still wreck that card at 1080p like Metro Last Light. Sure it's in theory a 4k card and 1440p is usually nothing for it, there are some games that'll give a good time.

Besides if you have the dosh to do it, get a monitor down the road for it and for now bask in it's beauty.

Yeah well the plan to upgrade the video card has now been shot to hell, car repairs come first. I need to replace the damn muffler.
