    Which GTX 980Ti should I get?

    if plans are card and stock cooler, one that combats the 65c mark where she starts to throttle away 13mhz chunks of your OC. In other words great stock cooling. I'm finishing a bios for one of the three best IMO

    [Rumor]GTX 980Ti to launch somewhere between May 16-26th

    What nVidia should have is a double precision GM200 at $1000, and a GM200 gaming card at $699. How about a redo nv? Titan-x owners can sell their cards for $850ish and grab the new Titan-X2

    AMD or nVidia take my money

    I had a 295x2 in my cart twice today. Love the idea and know it would handle 1440p, but stop as I think that my $700 *could* buy a next gen single GPU flagship some time soon. Two months without decent gaming. IGPU and Indie games save me. Situations like this call for a cheap back-up card...

    AMD or nVidia take my money

    had a R9 295X2 in my cart this morning for $649 with $30 rebate, said I'd wait till I got to work. Get to work, $ 749. I know it fluctuates, will watch it. All things for a reason, ugh who knows..

    I must say it's a killer card, where for this $$?

    AMD or nVidia take my money

    that's a nice option but I'd rather invest in next gen flagship.

    AMD or nVidia take my money

    planning a res jump, wanted to sell now, 295x2 is very appealing but DX12 is supposed to be a game changer right? ;)

    AMD or nVidia take my money

    I just sold my remaining 780Ti Classy. Grabbed two for $550 each of an Amazon warehouse deal way back. Funny though I remember being stoked about 290 CF. Poor OEM cooling at launch, followed by inflated pricing nixed that plan. Come on AMD, June? Come on NVidia, a $1000 bucks? I was thinking...

    NVIDIA GTX Titan X Bios Modding

    A good custom bios is worth its weight in gold. 780 Ti Classy here with custom bios for stock cooler. Solved driver crashing while giving nice perf boost. Love it!

    [WCCF] 980ti coming this summer with full GM200

    When's 390x supposed to drop? Having a counter is something both camps have achieved, sometimes anyway. $799 NVidia.. that's what I'll pay to upgrade my 780Ti, no more, but certainly less.. ;)

    Nvidia GTX Titan X Owners Benchmark Thread

    Arguably the best OEM (air) cooling solution ever. Full coverage PCB component cooling, easily removed GPU cooler for TIM swapping, very decent fan, killer looks complete with window, etc. Put that on a Maxwell and you have killer potential. Love the aftermarket power delivery and cooling...

    Titan X Launch

    Okay sweet card but priced well beyond what most enthusiasts are able/willing to pay. I was thinking $799, damn. AMD help this situation out please..

    Very true. Gameplay came back to me fairly quickly thank goodness. Finishing like the third level where you destroy an enemy carrier. Leaving with 10 ion canon frigates, 14 heavy corvettes, 2 support frigates and 4 resource collectors. Hopefully enough for whatever comes next, lest I built the...

    Excellent! Great storyline, dynamic gameplay, truly a genre defining game. Wonder why they didn't rework Cataclysm. Would love to breathe life into a couple of these monsters.. http://shipyards.relicnews.com/somtaaw/dreadnought.htm

    [VC][TT] - [Rumor] Radeon Rx 300: Bermuda, Fiji, Grenada, Tonga and Trinidad

    Off topic, but I just reviewed R9-295x design, reviews, and pricing. I've never owned a dual GPU board, opting for two cards, but intrigued by the former. Would it be foolish to buy one right now?

    R9 290 CF pull the trigger? for 1440p..

    it's a 780Ti Classified, I'm seeing ~$400 on ebay, now's the time to sell. Yes these 290/x deals with good aftermarket cooling are very attractive. Nice driver improvements as you pointed out. Checking the links thanks..

    R9 290 CF pull the trigger? for 1440p..

    Buying a 32" 1440p monitor, I can buy a 2nd 780Ti for SLI, or sell the one I have and move to something else. Next gen around the corner, 970 memory fiasco, 290 prices looking sharp! What to do?? Ugh..

    SHOCKING interview with Nvidia engineer about the 970 fiasco

    folks with 1440P and beyond - how do you cope with small text

    OP I've yet to use one but have been researching 32" 1440p screens. A lot of positive feedback on text size being near perfect. I'm closing in on one, def my next purchase.

    Dual 970 v.s. single

    when you say dual 970, that's SLI, two cards working together to render. A single 980 is very decent for 1080p resolution, enough from a performance standpoint. 970 SLI would be overkill to most

    Researching 32-inch 1440p gaming monitor

    I decided to go with the HP Envy 32. Best Buy has same price as Amazon, with free shipping to store and I can return it locally if not satisfied. Specs look great for the price, hopefully a nice choice for a year or two until 4K hits the sweet spot. I'll post pics and impressions.

    Researching 32-inch 1440p gaming monitor

    It's very tempting for the price. From what I'm reading, it offers similar screen quality as the higher priced 32" 1440p screens. Very tempting, hate to spend $899 for the LG but considering..

    Researching 32-inch 1440p gaming monitor

    Yea Lava pointed out the LG 34" a couple months ago. These cheaper 32" seemed doable, but wow I spent some time reading specs and reviews, pretty damn close to perfect for gaming and media. A monitor is long term, I may have to reconsider. I'm finding links with and without a "-P" in the model...
