Is there something happening that makes you think you need an upgrade?

This is pretty much the same machine I have and have no issues running most games on ultra 1440 144hz.

It's a 1080p 60Hz monitor anyway.

You could throw in 5 x 2080ti's and it would make zero difference to your experience as that monitor is bottlenecking the whole system as it stands, the GPU is completely overpowered for it.

I'd suggest buying a 1440p 144Hz monitor, that would give you a whole world of difference for around £400

I was just wondering if there was perhaps a performance drop which could be hardware related but could be solved.
