Alright you guys, give a scrub some help here. I've got a 760 gtx at the moment, and i'm thinking of buying the 1060 because it's in my price range.
The reason i'm not going for the 1070 is because i don't have a 4k screen or a dual monitor setup.
Like there's really no reason for me to go that beefy? Should i just get the rest of the cash and go for the 1070?
I'm not looking into buying a 4k screen anytime soon that's for sure.

i have the 1070 STRIX OC and i play at 1080p. i actually had the 1060 STRIX OC first but i wasn't satisfied with performance in games like Witcher 3, so I traded it back in for a 1070 and paid the difference. then i also bought a new i5-6600k to replace my old 2nd gen i5-2300 since it was bottlenecking hard on the 1060 already. keep in mind i got a pretty sick deal on both cards because of where i work (about 150 USD discount) so obviously that's a factor
if you have the money then go for the 1070 because you'll be maxing out games for years to come. even if 100 FPS in games like Fallout 4 seems overkill to you, next year we'll get even more demanding games
it's about 20% pricier for 40% more performance

I just don't have the money for the Strix, but thanks for your quick response.
