Bought my GTX 1080 for $500 from amazon. I would just grab the 1080

My gut tells me theyll be releasing new cards quarter 1 2018. When they start dropping ti versions of they non flag ship cards is usually a sign of them trying to squeeze whatever $ out the current line before they move on. Im not in a rush just had that quick impulse to look shyt up today im more under control than @Ciggavelli :pachah:

Anyone who has a decent PSU and need a new graphics card...this Windforce 780 for $120 is a damn good deal IMO:

GIGABYTE GV-N780OC-3GD GeForce GTX 780 3GB 384-Bit GDDR5 PCI Express 3.0 | eBay

Hey Casual,

Alienware Casual

I was just throwing out a suggestion since the price for performance is hard to beat. For $120 it is a nice price since Ethereum has thrown the whole market off.

Enjoy your alienware​

BTW is anyone on here playing Wolfenstein 2 on the PC? How is it running? I am getting caught in some areas in Neu York on the xbox, but will likely grab this on the PC shortly.

So are they not doing the "70" suffix on the intel processors no more?

aka 3770k and 4770k but all I see now is 6950k then 7700k and the new 8700k ?

Yeah they haven’t done that in a while on the high end of their main consumer platform. These companies release too many damn processors so similar in performance it’s annoying so I welcome it.
