I'm building a rig, I want to play 1440p at max @60fps for the next two years or so before having to upgrade.
at $400 extra is it worth it to go with the 1080ti strix as oppose to the 1080 strix?

No.

thanks, mate appreciate it! I heard the %30 performance difference can translate to like 10 fps at most depending on the game.

1080 ti is worth it, in two years you can probably add another one onto it and play in 4k for a year or two before it starts getting outdated.
The 1080 will last you 2 years at 1440p not sure about max but close to it!

1080 will play every game at max or almost max settings at 1440p 60fps.

1080 Ti is only worth it for 4k resolution.
>>61956328
the Ti by itself is probably the second best card you can get in terms of pricing and gaming.

You might also want to get a Gsync monitor (or Freesync if you go with Vega, same performance but could be cheaper depending on country and electricity).

on it but thanks good to know on the right track.

Does running a game at 4k on a 1440p screen or 1080p screen make much of a difference in terms of looks?
>>61956328
An extra $400? No. 1080ti offers roughly 20% more performance, but that premium doesn't justify that.
What exactly is the price of them anyway? It's meant to be a $200 difference at MSRP.
