CanadaWhaaaaat? Wasn't the MSRP of that thing lower than $400?
The GPU market has gone completely nuts.
It is also over clocked quite a bit, I could have saved a little of cash.
But I guess the concern is the price for performance. It's really hard to ignore the AMD series.
Buying nvidia was perhaps not my real mistake, but buying into gsync. It does make you lock into a premium price point that I'm now regretting.
I think a capable 144Hz monitor would suffice would have saved me $200 and I would not lock in. At the time of choosing I wanted the absolute best, but if you're going casual over time this no longer makes sense.
I also bought an SLI Board for crossfire/SLI. And the ecosystem for dual GPU setups aren't quite there yet. The stutter is something I want to avoid and also something I thought gsync would naturally help with. But I have no real proof of that either.
Ugg. Anyway it's fine. I can make use of the 1070. This is my third nvidia card. I only used to run ATI/AMD when I was younger.
All this talk about performance of these consoles does really get you thinking. If you can do more for less, that's a great thing. It may not be the highest end, but we're talking bang for buck. And these mid generation consoles are doing exactly that. (If you only want to just game). And indirectly/directly so are the new AMD series.
